The Story

January 11th 2019
Inspired by Edwin Markham’s poem “The Larger Circle,” I created this blog to help myself “draw the larger circles” of tolerance and compassion around those who don’t have the same values or beliefs that are important to me. Perhaps this blog will help you, Dear Reader, do the same.

Part personal, part spiritual, part philosophical, I want this blog to lessen a bit of the emotional pain we sometimes feel over something negative that a family member or friend has said or done (or over something hurtful that we’ve heard or read about).

I hope that this blog will, in some fashion, give us an easing of pain, a feeling of hope, and a sense of “The Larger Circle” that holds us all in Love.
