Description
“Compassion crowns the soul with its truest victory.”
---from the poem “Angel of Healing: for the Living, the Dying, and the Praying” published in the book THE RIVER OF WINGED DREAMS.
I keep feeling like a greater more mindful application of compassion towards each other might be the single biggest silver lining behind the toxic cloud of the coronavirus which has defined our collective experience of the year 2020. “Sunrise in the Valley of Compassion” is a celebration of our capacity to increase the best within us when confronted by the worst which life throws our way.
In this image, the polychromatic light-waves of yellow, red, teal, blue, and orange are framed by shadows of darker hues with a blaze of yellow-white emerging out of the upper right corner. Symbolically speaking, the source of one advancing wave of luminous color is the natural universe as seen when dawn breaks, and the second represents our repeated determination to “do better” by each other when it comes to matters of social and political injustice. The shadows of trauma slowly give way to brighter hopefulness and stronger resolve.

And I thank you VIVA. 2020 has been a tough year all around but folks have been pulling through, to paraphrase the old Beatles song, with a little help from compassionate friends.
