I’m going to make it my goal today to treat all others as I wish to be treated. I’m doing this in honor of the unveiling of The Charter for Compassion. The Charter is a result of a desire to find an underlying value that brings the five major world religions together. The Charter was made possible by TEDprize.

Tumblr. would not want me to be too wordy so I am going to let the video below do the talking. It was made public about an hour ago…

Listen to and see the words of the Charter for Compassion here:
