An Unusual Friendship Amidst Sufferings and Differences

"Our suffering is equal. Yet I am treated with sympathy; she's treated with hostility"
- Phyllis Rodriguez on Aicha el-Wafi

Below is another remarkable video from Ted.com about an amazing friendship of two mothers from different side of the world. One has suffered because her son was one of the World Trade Centre attack and one is the mother of the convicted terrorist who is serving a life sentence. Both found forgiveness and healing from each other.

"We have to know the other people, the OTHER. You must be generous, and your hearts must be generous. Your minds must be generous."
