Monday Mantra 258

"One cannot live with sighted eyes and a feeling heart and not know and read of the miseries which affect the world." - Lorraine Hansberry

Don’t shut down for fear of suffering or pain. Keep eyes-wide-open, brave a broken heart and join the army of compassion that shares joy and yet knows “miseries which affect the world.” True joy and true sorrow walk hand-in-hand, close your “sighted eyes” and you walk alone. But reach out and touch another’s pain and be one with all of us who know sorrow and never turn our backs on another’s "feeling heart."
