Responsibility - Unity - Harmony
It is a natural aspect of the world’s design that life forms are interdependent. If compassion means empathic awareness of that natural interconnection, then compassion is a law of nature we cannot deny. If we want to live in harmony with the logic of our world, we can’t ignore the parts of us that are custodians of the earth and our brothers’ and sisters’ keepers. We’re responsible for one another’s wellbeing whether we choose to act in accordance with that responsibility or not, because our wellbeing is inescapably collective.
