Brick 7: Compassion

As another year rolls on, it is sad to see the horrible things unfolding.

Fortunately, we also see acts of kindness, of compassion, of service and of sacrifice. But know this: More good is needed.

So, please . . . Embrace compassion.

Why? Someone once said: “Treat everyone with kindness, not because they are nice, but because you are.” And if more and more of us try to – where we can, when we can, as best we can – try to be kinder, to be compassionate – good is growing.

Therefore, take a look around you, at the daily news or where ever and look to see the good, the bad and the ugly that is unfolding. Then decide – are you okay with that or is their at least something you can do, to help tip things a bit more into the good?

Hopefully you, with me, and with as many more as possible, can see that more can be done. We just have to want to do more.

Thanks for thinking about this and for doing what you can.

Also, if possible . . .

“Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.” Philippians 2:3-4
