When one of us suffers, anywhere in the earth, it creates a ripple. Not in some mysterious "karma", but that is one less hand to work, heal, help or encourage. That is lost potential, growth and change.

The opposite is also true. The more we can develop and grow with each other, be it through charity, volunteering or just fighting for what is "right", so to speak, we will surely evolve with less bumps and rapidly in all levels.

I can't be alone in this perception, can I?
