Cooperation, not competition, survival not of the fittest, but of the kindest. Jon Ramer is the CEO of the global Compassion Games. Here's our interview:
It turns out that the hard work of fixing the world,
uniting the divisions among people and solving painful social problems doesn’t
have to be work at all. It can be fun, inspiring, invigorating and playful and
everybody is welcome to get in on the game!
Just when you think the world can’t get any darker... poisonous politics, terrorism, militarization of public streets, conflicts, war zones and inhumanity that makes people refugees and then makes them “other” coupled with climate changes that threaten life itself... along comes something and with a flash of insight sparked by the fire of inspiration, the torch of compassion is ignited and hands from every corner of the world reach for this torch that resembles, in the moment, something too often elusive-- called hope. Then along come others to shine a light on how human compassion plays out in the world.
Play” being the operative word.

My heart begs to "play" again.
Compassionate People Rising (CPR), this is the only game I want to "play" but I also feel called to help shed light on the egregious injustices preventing the individual and human family from feeling the trust and safety required to invite, nurture and sustain " play".
