Maybe sometimes in some moments it is suddenly a very simple or quick step from envy to celebrating another's good fortune. We may see the greener grass and have the opportunity in less than a second to choose, in a general way, to exalt the greenery over choosing to stay in dismay about or longing for it. What's something you're envious of right now that brings you to envy because at its root it's just so completely fabulous and wonderful?

In response to the much-needed call for #COVIDCompassion, #MindfulHearts offers the sister chant of #QuarantineCompersion. The art and skill of understanding the suffering of others and feeling and acting on the impulse to lessen that suffering goes hand in hand with the art and skill of feeling and acting on the impulse to nourish joy everywhere. May we all have moments of joy that grow and extend through the times we live in and beyond.

[image description: Two large hearts are pointing at each other with one hand while the other hand is thrown up in celebration. The heart on the left has three smaller hearts nearby playing and watching, with different facial expressions, the two larger, celebrating hearts. The heart on the left looks at the heart on the right and exclaims, "No kids!" and the heart on the right exclaims back, "Kids!"]
