What will love have us do? What is a starting place to look at the world through someone else’s eyes and have empathy for them?

I believe these are going to be difficult times. We might drown in the difficulty. But, if we try to love our neighbor, even the strangest one of all, I wonder if we can learn to swim in the turbulence. I wonder if love is a life-raft. I wonder if fierce, just, revolutionary love might be what saves us — each of our imperfect selves seeking each other, curious, candid, leaning-in to the ties that bind us.
