Love and Fear

Woke up, as the rest of the world did, to the stunning news that Britain voted to leave the European Union.  I did not expect this outcome, and don't think any of us can know where it will lead. 

But all I could think of when I watched an hour or so of American and Canadian TV analysis, was this: to remind myself that there are only two things in the world, love and fear. There is so much fear out there, about this and so many other things. If there was ever a moment to hold our inner cores in a place of love, this is it. Hang in there, keep breathing, and try to love each and every person who is trying to make sense of and shape a changing world. That is, love everyone.
