Sharon Salzberg

‘There’s such a pervasive feeling that “The suffering is intractable, so what could my contribution possibly amount to?” People need to be encouraged to do the good that’s in front of them, whether it’s political or not. Even when it’s just helping a friend who’s in trouble, we do the good that’s in front of us, realizing that we’re not in charge of the universe. We can’t solve it all. But we can offer our engagement, and that’s very important.’ (from Lion’s Roar)
