20121225: a universal hand by John LeMasney via 365sketches.org #creativecommons #design #humanism

It is Christmas today in America. A good friend once asked me if I could do one thing to improve the world, what would it be? I thought on it, and after a while, I answered that I would give all humans the ability to feel the history, pain, and challenges of others. To have mandated omnipresent mediation. If you can feel, empathize, and understand the life of another, it might explain the choices that they make, the prejudices that they hold, and the pain that keeps them from treating one another and themselves with kindness. If I was to have one wish granted, this would be the one. To those of you who are celebrating today, I wish this for you. For those of you who celebrate other holidays in other ways, the very best of those seasons to you.

If you like it, please share it, and thanks!
