It's exhausting to give a damn, isn't it?
To be a person of compassion in a time when compassion is in such great demand—to wake up every day in days like these, and push back against predatory politicians and toxic systems and corrupt legislation and human rights atrocities and acts of treason and leadership failures in the church and Presidential Tweet tantrums—the volume and the relentlessness of the threats can be wearying. You may have noticed.
You're attentive to the damage around you and you're moved to respond to it. This is a beautiful and invaluable instinct, but it is costly too. There is a toll the trauma of the world takes on us when we seek to step into that dangerous space and to work for healing and justice.
In days when so much need is at our doorsteps and on our news feeds, how do we attend to it all without becoming overwhelmed and consumed by it? How can be cultivate hope when it is hard to come by? Here are a few thoughts about how to be safely burdened with the pain of this world, and what to do when you've exhausted your resources.
