Sat Nam,

 

I followed the advice of a very wise child expert ...

> Mr Rogers. What he suggested was stressing that the world is full of

wonderful people but there are some people who are not so nice but to

reassure them

> that there are far more good people than bad and that is why the world

was sad because of what just a few bad people did.

 

Humm. this Mr. Rogers is an expert on what? judgment?

 

Here is another possibility that might build compassion in a child's heart

instead of bad/good categorization --

How about -- there are people who are unhappy because they are not being

cared for, feel frustrated and angry because they cannot get their needs met

and don't know who to turn to and how to get the love they need. So they do

hurtful things to try to get attention. They would not do these things if

they were happy, had enough food to eat and felt loved. It must be really

sad to not feel love in your heart. How do you (to child) feel when you

don't get what you want? Let's pray they everyone can feel loved and send

these unhappy people some love too. To child, how does that make your heart

feel?

 

Sat Nam,
