COMMENTS

On July 2, 2017, my wife and I saw the Empathy Tent on the south lawn of the Los Angeles City Hall. We knew immediately that this is an important alternative to Business As Usual. The next day Edwin Rutsch responded to my email and I’ve been part of the Empathy Tent team ever since. I’m a retired high school teacher.

We have two grown sons. It’s a privilege to be a pilgrim on the journey to human wholeness. Among my beloved teachers are Benedict Reid OSB, Peace Pilgrim, Thomas Keating OCSO, Nan Miller, Richard Rohr OFM, Julian of Norwich, Siddhartha Gautama, Jon Kabat-Zinn, Thich Nhat Hanh, Paramahansa Yogananda. Listening is better than shouting. Listening for understanding is better than listening to reply.
