HUMANITY
“I love my country better than my family; but I love humanity better than my country.”
~ Francois Fenelon ~
I need to think big. I must escape from the little concepts that keep me small. Life is more than I can ever perceive. I need to see it in its totality.
The nuclear family can be restrictive if viewed as the center of loyalty. Even national citizenship should be placed in the context of the world. My freedom rests in universal humanity.
Spirituality is about thinking big. It is finding God in the richness of creation. Shared humanity is the path to world peace and serenity. Divisions should not exist for the humanitarian who seeks acceptance for all individuals simply because they are people.
God, may I seek and find the One in the many and the many in the One.
