It is a timeless message, one that echoes through the literature and songs of virtually every spiritual tradition – from love your enemies to love is all you need. And in these days of division and polarization, it’s a message we need to remember and heed.
There is an analogous message in the world of work. I am a big believer in finding and doing work you love to do. But I’m also realistic enough to know it’s not always possible for people to find, or to create, their “dream jobs.”
