Why I support the Compassion Coalition

Compassion is both a social extension of psychological well-being and a major foundation for it. It's a manifestation of emotional openness and mindfulness, and a reflection of how conscious connection among the human community leads to kindness of values-based action. In our modern world we need the messages the GCC stands for.
