I watched the Pope's address to the US Congress this morning. It was an amazing sight to see the Pope speaking at the US Capitol. The singular take away for me was a reminder of the Golden Rule, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Imagine if everyone on earth did that! Imagine if most people in our circles of friends and family did that! As Americans, we are particularly fortunate to live predominately peaceful lives. So many on earth do not live in places where that is possible. For those of us so fortunate, shame on us if we choose not to live daily with friends and family by the Golden Rule.
