What? Loving kindness? You may be asking why write about that. Well, our friend and tribe member Bill Cumming says that “Loving-kindness is what is required in every situation.”
Every situation is pretty broad. That would include work life, family life, financial life, personal life, etc. Basically all situations. That’s a pretty sweeping statement to be sure. And here is the rub: “You cannot give unconditional love unless you have experienced it.”
Wow! How do you do that? First, realize that “Pain exists, suffering is optional.” Here are some additional insights:
- All damage is caused by people who have no experience of their value and worth in the world.
- Unwell people are likely to damage themselves and others.
- There is no one to blame, there is only taking responsibility.
- Many unwell people are not interested in creating a planet for everyone.
- Thinking you are brighter than another is an indication of insecurity and fear.
- Thinking that your position makes you better or more important is a sign of insecurity and fear.
- Any judgment or evaluation of another means you have completely misunderstood the nature of the Miracle.
- Every single action, word and thought is either a demonstration of loving-kindness or other.
Powerful!

Note: I am a board member of the Boothby Institute. The mission is all about giving others the actual experience of loving kindness (not just more words and theories).
