COMPASSION: Listening with an Open Heart and Soul
Becoming one with others. Transforming empathy into unconditional love and care for all.
Compassion is about caring enough to understand and respect others, and especially to embrace those who are difficult to love. It moves beyond solace and comfort, as it transforms us to feel suffering as others are suffering; to strive to feel another person's emotions as our own. It is offering the unconditional gift of love to those we cannot comprehend.. Compassion is one person at a time creating a spirit of understanding and love in a troubled world.
"I do not ask the wounded person how he feels, I myself become the wounded person."
-Walt Whitman (1819-1892)
