"We humans have existed in our present form for about a hundred-thousand years. I believe that if during this time the human mind had been primarily controlled by anger and hatred, our overall population would have decreased. But today, despite all our wars, we find that the human population is greater than ever. This clearly indicates to me that love and compassion predominate in the world. And this is why unpleasant events are news, compassionate activities are so much part of daily life that they are taken for granted and, therefore, largely ignored." - Dalai Lama

The Quest for a Better World

This will be a 365 day blog. For one year, every day, I will post a finding about a charity that is making life better somewhere in the world, a story about good people, or a rambling about the world’s issues and my jumbled-mumbled thoughts on them.

Please keep your eyes and hearts open. That’s all I ask.
