"This photo was taken in Nubia, Egypt while our HUG group was visiting a local village. We rode camels to the village and were welcomed into a villager's home where we were served tea by a kind, warm couple. Their precious baby was being passed around by all the girls in our group, and I was able to hold her for about ten minutes. She absolutely stole my heart." Photo courtesy of Lacey Brown.
What I love about this photo is that it was not posed. Hopefully I caught the moment to show compassion.

A terrific read. A sincere and honest look ay human feelings and how much we need to allow when we relate to one another. Walk a few miles in "other" shoes.

COMPASSION
Union Theological Seminary
Broadway at 121st Street
New York, NY
The Institute of Art, Religion, and Social Justice recently held its first exhibition, Compassion, from November 19, 2009 to January 14, 2010.
In today's shifting political, economic, and ecological landscape, the need for compassion has never been greater, compassion understood as mutual interdependence, knowledge of self and others, and concern for human flourishing. This kind of compassion requires seeking to know all aspects of human reality, being open to truths beyond our everyday experience and embedded in it. Artists often awaken compassion most profoundly. They form our imaginations such that we can envision our interconnectedness in ways that mere didacticism cannot achieve.
Compassion used the buildings of Union Theological Seminary to create a kind of pilgrimage. The works were situated in various locations to create a tour of this remarkable and often overlooked historic complex.
Alfredo Jaar's Embrace (1995), from his Rwanda series, greeted the visitor in the Hastings lobby. Scott Treleaven was featured in the James Chapel with black and white photos from Cimitero Monumentale (2009). Marina Abramovic's video 8 Lessons on Emptiness with a Happy End (2008) shared the Narthex with Yoko Ono's Whisper Piece (2001). Terence Koh's invisible installation was located in the Refectory, with its 40-foot ceiling and massive stone fireplace, nearby. If the visitor strayed to the other end of the building, she might have found Bas Jan Ader's iconic image I'm too sad to tell you in the Burke Library, echoed in the plaintive chant of Michael Bühler-Rose's liquid ritual I'll Worship You and You'll Worship Me (2009), which could be found in the upper reaches of the Rotunda. Chrysanne Stathacos' Rose Mandala Mirror (three reflections for HHDL), also in the Rotunda, was originally created in honor of the Dalai Lama. While circumnavigating the cloisters that link the various spaces of the seminary, further works by Gareth Long and Paul Mpagi Sepuya could be found.
The Institute of Art, Religion, and Social Justice was founded under the auspices of Union Theological Seminary to explore the relationship between contemporary art and religion through the lens of social justice.
Compassion was curated by AA Bronson, Artistic Director of the Institute.
The exhibition is presented in conjunction with Karen Armstrong's TED Prize 2009 of the same name.

"Compassion is Consciousness expressed through your actions and words. Compassion is the art of non-hurting. Compassion cannot hurt. Compassion cannot hurt anyone because compassion is Consciousness manifested. Consciousness cannot hurt anyone. Just as the sky cannot hurt anyone and space cannot hurt anyone, the manifestation of Consciousness, compassion, cannot hurt anyone. One who has compassion can only be compassionate."

Fredericksburg & Spotsylvania National Military Park
The heroic act of Second Lieutenant Richard Rowland Kirkland during the Battle of Fredericksburg in 1862 was astonishing but awe-inspiring. As a Confederate soldier, he was struck by the painful cries of the wounded, and decided to step out and help the soldiers from both sides despite the potential danger for himself. The causes of war are often complex, but humanitarian hearts can just be simple and unconditional.

A slogan on the walkway of old, downtown El Centro in California: "the compassion to care, the leadership to conquer". This seems like a statement that is out-of-place for the setting but I do like the sentiment. Somehow I don't think it was part of the optical shop called "ICU". I did like the motto of that shop: "Your vision is our focus". I have another frame where that part of this street scene actually IS in focus, LOL.
The composition was made for me by the time of day as the sharp light and high contrast with light and shadow attracted my attention.
