A Little Empathy, in Honor of Dr. Seuss (and My Mom)
|
Hey there, March 2nd is Dr. Seuss’s birthday, and in my world, that means it’s also a day to remember my late mother, who—without fail—dressed as the Cat in the Hat on Dr. Seuss’ birthday. Listen, we all have our hobbies. This was hers. And she wore that striped hat with gusto. Dr. Seuss gave us plenty of whimsical rhymes and wacky characters, but he also imparted lessons in empathy. "Horton Hears a Who" reminds us that a person’s a person, no matter how small. "The Sneetches" tells us that the stars on our bellies don’t determine our worth. "How the Grinch Stole Christmas?" That story teaches us that a heart—even a Grinchy one—can grow when shown a little kindness. If there was ever a time in human history to take those lessons to heart, it’s now. The relentless onslaught of bad news has so many of us activated—angry, grieving, overwhelmed. And if you’re not feeling that way, you might be catching the collateral damage of someone who is. Either way, it’s rough out there. So today, in honor of Dr. Seuss, my mom, and that ridiculous hat, here’s my gentle ask: Be kind. Extend grace. Lead with empathy. It won’t solve everything, but it’s a start. With love (and maybe a little Seussian rhyme), |
