June 14 Tip: Krista Tippett, Reconnecting with Compassion

Krista Tippett, Reconnecting with Compassion
(the June 14 Compassionate Living Tip from Interfaith Paths to Peace)

The term "compassion" -- typically reserved for the saintly or the sappy -- has fallen out of touch with reality. At a special TEDPrize@UN, journalist Krista Tippett deconstructs the meaning of compassion through several moving stories, and proposes a new, more attainable definition for the word.
Krista Tippett hosts the national public radio program "On Being" (formerly "Speaking of Faith"), which takes up the great animating questions of human life: What does it mean to be human? And how do we want to live?
