Tonight is 18 Days to the Omer
Day 17 -- Tiferet of Tiferet: Compassion in Compassion
True compassion is limitless...Compassion for another is achieved by having a selfless attitude, rising above yourself and placing yourself in the other person's situation and experience....Do I express and actualize the compassion and empathy in my heart? What blocks me from expressing it? Is my compassion compassionate or self-serving? Is it compassion that comes out of guilt rather than genuine empathy? Test yourself by seeing if you express compassion even when you don't feel guilty.
Exercise for the day: Express your compassion in a new way that goes beyond your previous limitations: express it towards someone to whom you have been callous.
