问题     We are all compassionate in one way or another; at times selective. Expressing compassion is inherently characteristic of us. Phenomenal tasks have been accomplished, oceans and mountains have been trekked across, and lives have been drastically altered because of compassion. It is our truest expression of love. Developing it as a way of life takes time, patience, and the enlightenment of our spirit.
    We are here for our lifetime and ultimately we will die. In our lifetime we should strive to build character, develop good moral qualities, and be in tuned with our world and its needs. In order to be compassionate, we must put ourselves in "another’s shoes" and ask ourselves this question, "If it were me, what would I need or how would I feel?" Each day should be a learning experience for us. As we encounter different types of individuals we find that some we seem to bond to naturally because of similar interest, ethnic background or other reasons. It is easy to love them like a family member or friend. But what about a stranger, coworker or neighbor who are different from us; one with different interests or one who may be just a difficult individual to get along with? Over time, we must learn to accept differences. Over time we must learn that an individual’s actions are effects of experiences. It is these individuals who test our compassion.
    Love is the key factor that builds the foundation for compassion. First, we must know what love is. For if we do not know love, how could we love another? Once we develop love within ourselves we realize the goodness it creates and the wonderful satisfaction it produces. We all desire love. Expressing it fills a void for the receiver and giver. We must work at becoming tolerant and understanding to those who are different or towards those we dislike and realize that we are all individuals, each with a special uniqueness. Some may not be open to your expression of love. That is okay because others will learn from your actions.
    We live on the same earth, we breathe the same air, eat the same foods produced from our earth, sleep under the same sun, moon and stars. We are a family and should practice brotherly love. Compassion is not condoning to another’ s belief and behaviors. It is simply being sympathetic and understanding towards one another. By loving unconditionally, compassion follows. All you have to do is spread your love.
