Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

Today I talked to my therapist, helped my daughter with her two little ones, then sat outside with a good friend and talked.  The engagement with others really helps me feel better.  We are all starved for more connection, as well as stimulation, variety and a sense of safety.  I'm hoping people are able to tolerate these challenges without becoming enraged or alienated from others.  I'm praying for everyone's safety and that the kindness inside them will prevail.  Things are shifting rapidly, and some of this change will be beneficial, but it's difficult to see it in the middle of what seems to be utter chaos.  We must center ourselves so our calm radiates outward.  We all have the tools to do this - we just in the will to do it.  I do so hope more people will speak to and embody equanimity so that we may heal and understand our mutual dependence on each other.
