Choosing Kindness: Eric Zimmer's Post-Election Reflections
And I think that for me, regardless of what circumstance I'm facing, you know in the beginning of the show we talk about the parable, about you know you're going to feed the wolf love and kindness and bravery. Are you going to feed the wolf of hate or evil or fear?
How do you decide which part of yourself to nurture in challenging times? In this thought-provoking mini-episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer shares his reflections following a turbulent election. Drawing on the powerful parable of the two wolves, Zimmer asks listeners to consider whether they'll feed the wolf of love, kindness, and bravery or the wolf of hate, fear, and despair.
He doesn't shy away from acknowledging the emotional turmoil many felt during the 2020 US Presidential Election. Instead, he emphasizes the power of personal responsibility and action in creating a better world. Zimmer encourages listeners to support marginalized communities, practice kindness and respect, and resist the urge to fall into despair. Rather than demonizing those with differing views, he suggests seeking understanding and connection.
This episode offers valuable insights for anyone looking to foster positive change in their own lives and the world around them.
