Rules of Engagement

Welcome to this Purple Bench, brought to you by Compassionate St. Augustine. This is a place to meet people and exchange stories, to explore your common humanity. 

Join someone or invite someone to join you on the bench. Discover what compassion means to them; tell what compassion means to you. Share an act of compassion you recently provided or experienced.

Be respectful. Listen deeply. Experience the gifts of presence and civility. Express kindness, curiosity, and empathy. Perhaps, through this sharing, you will part as friends.
