“Many people speak of unconditional love but rarely live it. Instead, when they see a condition that causes them to feel negative emotions, they demand a change in the condition; but in doing so, they set themselves on a long and uncomfortable path of attempting to control others in order to feel good.” –The Teachings of Abraham in The Astonishing Power of Emotions by Esther Hicks

Is it possible? In the shadow of this rhetoric exists a far more important question: “Can true compassion and judgment co-exist?” My answer is no, they cannot. After graduating high school in 1994, I spent six months volunteering for an organization called Community Service Volunteers in London, England.
