”Compassion is to look beyond your own pain, to see the pain of others.” Yasmin Mogahed

That person who was rude to you, or the one who cut you off in traffic, or who got up on the wrong side of the bed, the same bed you slept in, are probably all going through some emotional something. Sometimes the greatest hindrance to being compassionate is when we get so caught up in our own emotions that we are blind to the hurts others may be feeling. We must get over ourselves and get past our own feelings if we are to show love, understanding and compassion to them.
