The world needs to learn to feel again, not just to see. An image of someone falling off a ladder may be visually funny, but for the person who is full of compassion and sensitivity, it is not funny, for when they watch, they feel for the pain of the falling person. The world would be a kinder place if hurtful images and hurtful 'jokes' were no longer regarded as funny. God feels the pain of the falling person, God feels the pain of insults passed off as jokes, with the hurting person, as the hurting person. When you hurt someone else, or laugh at their pain, you are hurting God, laughing at God's pain. The world needs to be more compassionate, more respectful, more in tune with Divinity. Your pain matters to God, and God wants healing for you, not insults and inappropriate laughter. When it seems that no-one else cares, always remember that God cares, and has promised you healing and redemption for every kind of pain and sorrow.
