Compassion

A compassionate person is the most powerful healer, not only of their own disease or problems, but of those of others.

Lama Kyabje Zopa Rinpoche-

My grandfather once told me the three C's of a relationship. The first being Communication, the second being Commitment and the third being Compassion. I've thought alot about the three C's and the one that always stands out for me is compassion. I know that commitment and communication are extremly important as well, but to beable to stand back and have compassion for another human being that is getting through life the best way they know how takes patience and understanding. I want to strive for a compassionate heart. Its not always easy and it takes much practice, but the journey is well worth it. I know when I've had troubled times Im grateful to have someone in my life that will help guide me through the darkness. Nobody is perfect and we all come with our own set of baggage, but I believe that through compassion it makes the load seem much lighter. I hope that the next time you have the opportunity to show compassion for another person you grasp on to it, because by helping them and guiding them you actually heal yourself. My father always said that life wasn't meant to be easy, but why make it anymore difficult. I hope your day is filled with happiness.

Namaste
