In the overall planetary plan, small family service is not enough outreach to show compassion. We must grow to see how we are cousins to everyone on our planet, and in that light feel the greater need and act for that need with care and kindness.
As we zoom off from the landing pad of our home called Earth, more and more in the years to come, we will say to other-planetary beings, "My home is earth, I'm from the planet Earth." We won't be saying "I'm from a small village in Holland." We will represent ourselves as part of a world family.
Let's take the present opportunities to grow in kindness through showing compassion, so that we truly feel like we are part of the great world family, the Earth family.
"With compassion, kindness hand and hand
We carry forth a master plan
Of caring, sharing, heartfelt giving
Receiving back more joy in living.
Compassion opens up the doors
To love that knows no bounds
We come alive as spiritual lights
As spiritual giants, love unbound."
