Why Compassion Makes Sense

Compassion is such a useful emotion that I am always amazed at how much people fight against it.

I get the impression people think if they are compassionate, they will lose a part of themselves.

They don’t realize how much power a person with compassion wields.

Compassion makes sense because it helps you deal more effectively with other people.

Compassion makes sense because it helps you to be less afraid of other people.

Compassion makes sense because it helps you to be the ethical person you really want to be.

Compassion makes sense because it helps you accept your flaws and mistakes with grace.

Compassion makes sense because it helps you to feel connected and less alone.

Compassion makes sense because it gives your life meaning and purpose.

Stop denying yourself these benefits and start actively practicing compassion.
