Day 66: Compassion Toward Others (and Yourself)

Day 66: Compassion Toward Others (and Yourself)

If you turn on the news, or just stick your head outside a window, you’ll see and hear the great hate debate that’s raging across the world. Red vs. Blue. Black vs. White. The list goes on and on and on.

Compassion is not a popular word these days. People are either good or bad.

But I would disagree. To take a phrase from the bible, no person is “without sin.”

I have done bad things. I have done things that are good. I am human. The problem these days is that we act as though everyone needs to be as perfect as they can be.
