Continuing with my Positive Flags of the Nations
project with a tribute to Compassion.
This is a collaborative work with my daughter, Karen Lewis.
A kind gesture can reach a wound that only compassion can heal.

Compassion and tolerance are not a sign of weakness, but a sign of strength.
Dalai Lama
There is a nobility in compassion, a beauty in empathy, a grace in forgiveness.

Red Rebel Brigade symbolises the common blood we share with all species,
That unifies us and makes us one.
As such we move as one, act as one and more importantly feel as one.
We are unity and we empathise with our surroundings, we are forgiving
We are sympathetic and humble, compassionate and understanding,
We divert, distract, delight and inspire the people who watch us,
We illuminate the magic realm beneath the surface of all things and we invite people to enter in, we make a bubble and calm the storm, we are peace in the midst of war.
We are who the people have forgotten to be!
Red Rebel Brigade was devised by Doug Francisco and Justine Squire from Bristol’s Invisible Circus for the Extinction Rebellion Spring uprising April 2019 in London

"If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy practice compassion".
Dalai Lama
Compassionate humans are everywhere if we are willing to open our eyes and see the kindness of those around us. Compassion is human nature.
So why dont we as humans show more compassion and kindness towards our planet, to Mother Nature, the environment and nature surrounding us. It makes me wonder. Why are we destroying the beauty of nature?
Why dont we acknowledging the need of animals, and nature in general, and the importance of their survival, as well as showing interest in their well-being, after all we need nature to be able to live here on earth.
I want to yet again praise and thank Una and Bo for putting the environment on the agenda, by making this sim.
I hope many will visit, but I also hope and wish people will take the time to sit down and reflect about what they see on the sim, this could very well be a real life scenario if we dont stop and think. By doing so hopefully we can make some changes in the way we treat our planet and the environment, we can all do something, even if little. It is a fact that global warming and climate change is effecting all of us. Some of the things we all can notice are: pollution, global warming, overpopulation, waste disposal, ocean acidification, loss of biodiversity, deforestation, ozone layer depletion, and the list goes on....

I am sorry my meager photoshop skills can't do this more justice. In the wake of evil, the symbol of the open hand is a powerful symbol. It conveys invitation, openness, compassion, and togetherness. In a time when rage begins it slow burn, an open hand can sometimes help love prevail over fury. Paris, the world offers you a hand of compassion. And, while war always seems inevitable in this broken world, may we all long for peace.
True happiness comes from a sense of inner peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion and elimination of ignorance, selfishness and greed.
La vera felicità proviene da un senso di pace ed appagamento interiore che a sua volta si ottiene coltivando altruismo, amore, compassione, e grazie all’eliminazione di rancore, egoismo e avidità.
(Dalai Lama)

- the climbing rose bush in our garden is blooming in profusion this summer
- my haiku today has a total of 17 syllables, arranged in 3 lines with a pattern of 5-7-5
- I like experimenting
- I have a tendency to be verbose, was not good at précis at school and writing haiku forces me to be concise!
Compassion : the act of showing kindness, support, and a desire to alleviate someone's suffering without necessarily sharing their emotional experience.

“It is easy enough to be friendly to one's friends. But to befriend the one who regards himself as your enemy is the quintessence of true religion. The other is mere business.”
― Mahatma Gandhi
For the ‘Art is Immortal’ art exhibition, ‘The Art of Compassion’. 14/04/2024
The vampire stood in the twilight’s shadow, holding a bouquet of roses in his hands. They were a tribute to her, the woman who had taught him to love and feel compassion. He longed to feel the warmth of the sun one last time, as an echo of the human warmth she had provided him. As tears of blood fell upon the petals, the sun touched his skin, and in that moment of pain and beauty, he remembered the light she had brought into his eternal life.
In the context of the story, the vampire’s compassion for the woman reflects an emotional connection that transcends his nature. Despite being a creature of darkness, his ability to feel compassion brings him closer to his humanity. As a way to honor the woman’s memory and feel a final connection with her, the vampire risks feeling the warmth of the sun, knowing it will cause him pain. It is a symbolic gesture of his love and compassion, choosing to share the human experience of loss and remembrance.

Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive. - Dalai Lama
I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures. - Lao Tsu

The Hymn of God's words "Only the Creator Takes Pity on This Mankind"
www.holyspiritspeaks.org/videos/only-the-creator-takes-pi...
Introduction
I
Only the Creator shares with mankind an unbroken bond of mercy and love.
Only He cherishes all of His creation, all of His creation.
His every thought, always for the good of mankind.
His every emotion is intertwined with their existence.
The expression of what He is and has is all for mankind.
It’s all for the sake of mankind.
II
Deep within His heart, all of man’s actions He feels.
Man’s transgressions awaken His just wrath and sorrow.
But man’s repentance makes Him forgive, man’s repentance makes Him delight.
He’s rushing around always, He’s everywhere at all times.
His every emotion, He dedicates—every second of His life,
and He’s offering every bit of His life without a word.
It’s all for the sake of mankind.
III
He knows not how to pity His own life, but cherishes mankind.
With His hands He’s fashioned this miracle of mankind.
Compassion and tolerance He bestows, without condition or thought of reward,
that mankind may live on under His gaze,
that one day, they may submit and grant that He is the One who nourishes man,
and grant that He is the One. Ah …
He supplies the life of creation, life of all creation, life of all creation.
His every thought, always, for the good of mankind.
His every emotion is intertwined with their existence.
The expression of what He is and has is all for mankind.
It’s all for the sake of mankind. It’s all for the sake of mankind.

"One can only face in others what one can face in oneself. On this confrontation depends the measure of our wisdom and compassion"
James Baldwin
in our culture of busyness and distraction, important things get lost: compassion, creativity, and presence. when i'm in a rush or lost in thoughts, i more easily box people into "other." but when i pause, i see our interconnection. it's not my pain or your pain, it's just pain. i can breathe in the collective pain, and breathe out love, acceptance, and compassion—compassion for myself, for friends, for strangers; compassion for the world.
Last year this climbing rose had grown on the wall up as far as the house guttering so it was severely cut back. The reward this summer is like a small waterfall of beautiful pink with a typical fragrance reminiscent of peaches.

First Fall morning of needing a jacket when headed out to exercise. Working on my miracle morning, exercise - check, silence - check, photo - check. Feeling like a champ today! Remembering today and honoring the memories of those who lost their lives 16 years ago.
