Thought of the Day - May 18, 2009

From someone who allowed their heart to bleed for others - Milan Kundera

"There is nothing heavier than compassion. Not even one's own pain weighs so heavy as the pain one feels for someone, pain intensified by the imagination and prolonged by a hundred echos."

At times you have to step outside yourself, your world, your life and allow your heart and mind to feel the plights of others. There are people, some you know, some you will never meet, suffering for one reason or another. It is your human obligation to feel for those going through things, even things you cannot understand, imagine or agree with. It's called compassion ladies and gentlemen, let's spread it because we can all use it at one point or another.

Have a compassionate day!!
