I would like to believe that "compassion" in some form is "inherent." That it can be "triggered." But this has not been my observation of mankind. I did not grow up in a compassionate household, so maybe I missed something there. And recently with the hoarding in the stores because of the Corona Virus. No doubt triggered by fear - "the toxin of the world" as she says.

Beautiful talk. 2 more to go :)
