Compassion arises naturally as the quivering of the heart in the face of pain, ours and another’s. True compassion is not limited by the seperateness of pity, nor by the fear of being overwhelmed.
When we come to rest in the great heart of compassion we discover a capacity to bear to witness to, to suffer with and hold dear with our own vulnerable heart the sorrows and beauties of the world. [Jack Kornfield]
I personally think that compassion is basicly the essence of charity 🤍
Maybe there is somebody in your life who you would like to say „thanks for being there for me“ to? Or maybe you would like to say it to yourself? We can show compassion as much to others as we can to ourselves.
