“Do not weep; do not wax indifferent. Understand.” -Baruch Spinoza

Barb's Comment:
Barb’s Comment: This is such wise counsel. It will keep us from falling into the ditch of sadness and despair as we observe all the pain and hurt in this world. It will also keep us from hardening our hearts and allowing indifference to numb us. Instead, just stand in each moment and try to understand only what is to be done with it. What is our part to do and bring in this slice of time? What can we contribute now to plant seeds for a better future?
