Seeds of Compassion Reflections

Thursday, April 17th, 2008

I just returned from my trip to Seattle for the Seeds of Compassion event. What a special couple of days.

I made a video of my reflection of the event. I have picture in my flickr page – you can see them by following the link on the right side (if you are actually on dougpagitt.com and not just reading the RSS feed).

The long and short of it was that I was on a panel with Desmond Tutu and 8 other people. The topic was “what do we do to build compassion” in young people of our communities. As it turned out I was one of the only panelists who was from a particular community. So many of the other responses were more big ideas than practical suggestions.

To watch the webcast go of the panel here and scroll to Tuesday. The linked both panels together so it is like 4 hours long. My part is about the 3:40 and 4:00

Here is a screen grab of the panel.

The video below are my reflections on the entire event.
