Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/e…

I have received the greatly troubling news regarding an increase in tensions between Cuba and the United States of America, two neighboring countries. I echo the message of the Cuban bishops, inviting all responsible parties to promote a sincere and effective dialogue, in order to avoid violence and every action that could increase the suffering of the dear Cuban people.

His Holiness’ Message for the New Year - 2024 On the occasion of the New Year, I would like to thank everyone who has sent me good wishes, and I offer my greetings to you all, brothers and sisters across the world. Despite the many challenges that we are facing today, I feel optimistic that with a growing appreciation of how interconnected we all are in the oneness of humanity, we can all work to lead more meaningful lives and create a better world. As human beings we share a common wish to be happy and free from pain. We are social animals who depend on others to survive. Therefore, as I often say, we should work for the benefit of others. If we cannot help them, we should at least make sure we do no harm. I have found that helping others is the best way of ensuring happiness and calm for ourselves. I also firmly believe that we can find peace in the world only when we find peace within. Every human being has the potential to cultivate inner peace, and by so doing to contribute to the peace of our global community. We must try to cultivate compassion and inner peace, regardless of our nationality or religion, we can contribute to the well-being and happiness of all mankind. If the last century was the century of violence, it is our responsibility to make this century the century of dialogue. Once again, I extend warm greetings to you all. I hope that you all enjoy an auspicious beginning to the new year, 2024. With prayers and good wishes, Dalai Lama

This period has shown how comfortable so many people are dehumanizing Arabs. It’s second nature for many, a default.

This, for me, is one of the most important pieces written in recent weeks. Palestinian history is full of efforts to resist non violently. All are suppressed, few get the fair attention of the world.

This just arrived in the post. @pcaruanagalizia is telling the story of his mother’s terrible murder. An abomination that galvanised many people around Europe to fight for rule of law.

At the beginning of my life in Germany I suffered a lot, but I discovered myself in loneliness. To face yourself, to be in an interview with yourself, and to ask it how it will face loneliness is important. raseef22.net/english/article…

No one can afford to disregard compassion, affection, and so on. Why? Because kindness and compassion are the main qualities necessary in life. A good mind, enriched by love and compassion, is essential for human beings.

did dj changeovers in festivals become a thing of the past? @DJDaveClarke

“They probably would have won [the contract], but it has to be very transparent with open data. Maybe [CMA CGM] is the best choice but not in this way.” I wrote about Beirut port's contract with CMA CGM for @TimepDC. timep.org/commentary/analysi…

perché @Enjoy non accettate tutte le patenti europee?? why @Enjoy does not accept all EU driving licenses?

Do you remember when you joined Twitter? I do! I actually don't, it's just Twitter that made it automatically for me to post! #MyTwitterAnniversary

from @TomMyspace to ElonTwitter the internet never ceases to provide

Compassion is to have a sense of concern for others and the community. Look at today's world—we are interdependent. We can't think only of my nation's interests. We have to take the whole world into account. Let us live happily together, helping each other rather than fighting.

i should get on twitter often!
