Compassion Through Our Sadness

An important teaching from our sadness is compassion for others who are in pain, because it is only in feeling our own pain that we can really understand and allow for someone else’s.

 Sadness is something we all go through, and we all learn from it and are deepened by its presence in our lives. While our own individual experiences of sadness carry with them unique lessons, the implications of what we learn are universal.
The wisdom we gain from going through the process of feeling loss, heartbreak, or deep disappointment gives us access to the heart of humanity.
