Today is about love … “Can't we give ourselves one more chance? Why can't we give love that one more chance? Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love …?” - Queen & David Bowie “Why can’t we give love?” is a remarkable question, with, billions upon billions of different answers. We could lump these responses together, under the heading of “pressures that no one asked for.” And, this may be true. But, it may also be true to say that it is because we have allowed these “pressures” to separate us from humanity. To alienate us from ourselves and each other; and our compassion and forgiveness. Though our conditions and situations differ, we all suffer pressure. We all experience fear and pain. Remembering this, will help us to act with compassion in the moment, when we encounter anger in ourselves and others. And, perhaps, allow us to extend forgiveness sometime thereafter. Wishing you a day of unparalleled capacity! Fly on, Superhero. Fly on! Under Pressure was released in October of 1981, almost 40 years ago. It is as relevant and true today, as it was then.
