Compassion is the thing that leads you gently back to yourself. ~ Merle ShainHaving nice thoughts and only nice thoughts is a significant departure for most of us. ~ Casey, Karen. Keepers of The Wisdom Daily Meditations: Reflections From Lives Well Lived. Hazelden Publishing. Kindle Edition.
In another book, Karen Casey
says, “No thoughtful action
can trouble us.” Compassion
came from the Latin, to suffer with.
Empathy is to take the pain as your own,
to feel in place of. Compassion motivates people
to go out of their way to help
the physical, mental, or emotional issues.
Compassion motivates people
to go out of their way to help
the physical, mental, or emotional pains
of another and themselves.
If we understand we’re inherently joined
with those we’re around, then
when those around us stop suffering
we, too, are improved. We share in the pain
as well as in the healing.
May you be blessed!
