Compassion is an inherent human quality that enlivens us. Nevertheless, we must water the seeds of compassion to activate it. In the video below, American Zen Buddhist Roshi and hospice caregiver Joan Halifax underscores that for thousands of years, women have manifested the strength arising from compassion. Additionally, she compels us to teach this trait to our children and healthcare providers, as well as vote based on it, so we can have a more caring world.
