What is compassion?

“Seek and you shall find” means you will always find what you are seeking. Are you seeking sympathy? Sympathy says, “I’ll feed your excuses and feed the victim within you”. Are you seeking the truth that will set you free? Compassion is when you have empathy and a sense of seeing and feeling the mess and pain that people are in. Compassion says “I’m unwilling for you to remain in your condition and I’ll help you find the way out”.
