On Compassion

Rob's address today is on  Compassion and the vulnerabilty in others that should prompt us to show it. He re-visits the "Charter of Compassion", read for us by Richard - and based on Karen Armstrong's book "Twelve Steps to a Compassionate Life".
Rob recalls his vivid memory as a young baseball player where he later regretted his failure to show compassion. He discussed the circumstances with his dad later and was able to understand why this had happened. At the time, it had a profound effect on the young Robert.
Rob discusses the consequences that so often follow our failures as individuals and as communities to show compassion to others in need. 
The Charter of Compassion talks of the need "to dethrone ourselves from the centre of our world and put another there..."
Rob urges us all to sign this charter if we haven't already done so. You may sign the Charter of Compassion at the following link: https://charterforcompassion.org/.
Listen on for a memorable and riveting address in Rob's inimitable style!
