      John 13:34-35

      34 I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another.

      35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.’

      This was said by Jesus before he was betrayed by Judas. This same notion is shared by many other holy prophets.

      • The Buddha taught that all living beings experience suffering, and therefore, compassion should be extended to everyone without discrimination.
      • The Prophetﷺ set a crucial example to the Muslims: that there is far greater value in forgiveness than in revenge. And that the remedy for injustice and the cycle of abuse is moving the community forward, as one whole, together.

      I don’t want to give up on humans. I don’t want to be a bitter person. Maybe my morals will be my ruin, but if so, I know I will have lived a compassionate life of love.

      As a human, I hate the actions going on in the US and around the world. As a spirit, I feel compelled to find love and champion it.

      Peace be to you, homie. 💜
