TODAY'S TOUCHSTONE



"Compassion does not render people tearful idlers, moral weaklings, or passive onlookers but individuals who will take on the pain of others, even when given the chance to skip out on such difficult action or in anonymous conditions."

               ~ Dacher Keltner

Compassion is not a sign of weakness but a sign of strength. Compassion may appear soft but it's soft like water is soft. And we know how water can wear down the hardest of rocks.


Compassion often leads to courageous actions and noble deeds. Healings too.

For ourselves and others, may we be strong in our caring and kindness.

Today and every day,
Charlene

COMPASSION:  May you be gentle with yourself and others. May you forgive those who hurt you and yourself when you make mistakes.                              from The Twelve Gifts of Birth
