If we can keep in mind compassion, gratitude and a sense of humility we can begin to help draw others outside of their comfort zone and toward an understanding for peace and harmony for the greater good.

In groups of humanity we play our parts in a symphony that produces the harmonic resonance of one state of being.  Some sing high, some sing low, and harmony is created in between.

Just as an individual must be open minded to open the doors to personal transformation, so must a society be open-minded to transform our social systems. To do this requires a change of attitude in relation to our values and loyalty to a given group. We now have to visualize ourselves as a member of the whole of humanity, and not just a limited group of familiar traditions and values.
