CULTIVATING COMPASSION

Mary Finelli is founder and president of Fish Feel (www.FishFeel.org), the first organization focusing on promoting the recognition of fish as sentient beings de- serving of respect and compassion. Head- quartered in Silver Spring, Maryland, Fish Feel is on social media at: www.Facebook. com/FishFeel.org; Twitter.com/Fish_Feel; instagram.com/fish.feel/. Mary also chairs the Save the Rays Coalition: http://save- theraysmd.org/. She has a B.S. in Animal Science, and has been active in animal rights advocacy since the mid-1980s. Mary has worked with various animal protec- tion organizations, primarily focusing on farmed animals. She produced Farmed An- imal Watch, a weekly online news digest sponsored by numerous animal protection organizations, and co-wrote a chapter of In Defense of Animals: The Second Wave. Cam MacQueen, MSW, is the creator/ manager of the “Cultivating Compassion” column and a board member of Fish Feel since its inception. After an extended hia- tus, Cam is grateful to return to Pathways and share Mary’s words of kindness and compassion for all beings - what the world needs now, perhaps, more than ever. As we each deal with the pandemic and its ongo- ing effects, may we take this time to strive for radical acceptance, peace, solidarity, a higher love, and an inclusive, celebratory community. Take care of each other, be kind always, keep your word, and please stay well. If you have an idea for an article, feel free to email Cam at theblockoffbilt- more39@gmail.com.

Add all other ingredients to the bowl and mix thoroughly for 1-2 min- utes, ensuring they are mixed evenly. Enjoy! *TIP: Chopping Nori can be annoy- ing.
