I’m a non-practicing Catholic and attended private Catholic School through 6th grade. Treat others as you want to be treated. Our golden rule in school. Compassion and empathy for all.

“The world as a living being-one nature, one soul. Keep that in mind. And how everything feeds into that single experience, moves with a single motion. And how everything helps produce everything else. Spun and woven together.” - Marcus Aurelius

“But the people on the street
Out on buses or on feet
We all got the same blood-flow
Oh, in society
Every dollar got a deed
We all need a place we can go
And feel over the rainbow…
… Keep it loose, keep it tight. “

“Keep it loose, keep it tight” by Amos Lee

“If you leave a man on land which is someone else’s property and tell him that he is a completely free man and can work for himself, it’s as if you drop him in the middle of the Atlantic and tell him that he is free to go ashore.”

Henry George via Leo Tolstoy. Translated by Peter Sekirin
