We live in a world that is becoming increasingly divided and fragmented. We are separating ourselves from others based on race, gender, age, political or religious belief or affiliation and even perceived health and physical beauty. What if instead of forming small groups to exclude others we drew a larger circle that took in others who may not share our beliefs or lifestyle? Instead of drawing a circle that shuts others out, let love draw a larger, more inclusive circle that draws in all living in social isolation. When we do we will find that we are no longer alone and isolated, but even more, that we are no longer so “different.”
