When My Life Is In Danger

Compassion is when you feel the suffering or pain of others and you are willing to do something to make their situation better. We relate to others pain through ours own experiences or our idea of what it must have felt like, or feels like. Intense suffering can generate compassion or sometimes anger. My own personal experience of pain has definitely made me more compassionate person. There is a pleasure in being compassionate. Even though that's not the sole intention of being compassionate to someone, I feel my life is more meaningful when I can practice being compassionate towards others.
