Katherine ("Katie") Katsenis from Panos Productions Photography talks to us in episode 9 about stopping to see the world through a different lens, one of compassion.

She shares the driving force behind her current fine art photography project, "Mother-Child", which is grounded in her Buddhist beliefs.  I originally brought Katie on the show to talk about gifting experiences, or items that will last a lifetime.  But when we began talking, she really made me think about the compassion that always exists between a mother and her child, that transcends all species and all types of mother-child relationships.  As human beings we can all use practice in viewing the entire world through a lens of compassion.

The simple action that we can take after today\'s episode is to practice compassion in every moment, even when we see an ant on the sidewalk, or find a spider in the shower.  Although this isn\'t easy, it will slowly change our lives, and the lives of those around us.
