Keeping empathy suppressed and denied, when an innate action of humane courage is imperative, is a decision to be silence itself
– to be complicit.
All of us have been blessed with someone’s humane actions of kindness, when our worlds seemed to have shattered, that fortified our hope, our faith, our courage, our body and mind.
Practicing humanity begins with you and me.
The measure of our character is our capacity to see/reality, empathize/compassion and do the right thing/step UP moral courage.
Recall the times when your world was fragile, and someone’s actions of “SEEING” you and, in turn, they stepped UP and fulfilled your need – a testament of radiant RADICAL HOPE.
Once again, Catherine L Johnson reveals to the world her responsibility as an artist and as a human being to speak and show the truth about our nation! She created and made bloom her project to bring Warmth to the homeless people of St. Paul through opportunities for us to donate hats, gloves, scarves and socks on Valentines week. She encourages us to be the best citizens that we can be and stand up for the safety of our country. She touches me with her deep love for humanity that she shows us face-to-face as well as through her glorious works of art. Thank you for inspiring me to become more of the best I can possibly be.
