Today felt sombre and heavy. It was a sad day. A day of mourning and compassion. Not just for Andrew Chan and Muyaran Sukumaran, not just for the people of Nepal.
Kerri and I chatted about Andrew, Muyaran, Nepal, Kerri’s knee, compassion and much more.

I feel that as a community we are almost living in parallel universes at times. I see people genuinely wanting to and actually caring for each other with love and compassion and care and understanding. Yet at the same time I see judgemental discriminatory behaviour driven by jealousy and envy and greed. Sometimes the same person can exhibit both characteristics. I think some of this is driven by our governments who concentrate on the economics of society over the care.

Your point that compassion should be and indeed is infinite is crucial.

Thanks Patrick – I love hearing your point of view
I am surprised to find that I am extremely saddened by the Bali9 executions. I am against the death penalty but have tried to stay out of the debate because I haven’t been able to decide what I am most angry about … these 9 people who were caught smuggling drugs in a country with the death penalty, the hypocrisy of our government threatening to punish Indonesia for their laws when we condone the same laws in the US, or because it was Australian authorities that tipped off the Indonesian police that enabled them to arrest the Bali9 in the first place.
I have unlimited compassion for both these young men and their families and friends, but unfortunately it carries absolutely no weight in the debate. And as much as I abhor their sentence, I did not, for one minute, ever think they were going to get clemency. But then again, the Barlow and Chambers case is still fresh in my memory.
I really believe that compassion is never misplaced. Your unlimited compassion for these men makes the world a better place – imagine if everyone had compassion in their hearts?
