Compassion is a long word that can be simplified into a short word, caring.  Compassion is when we open our hearts in caring, and we are able to honor ourselves and others.  First we allow caring for ourselves.  We learn to honor ourselves and hold ourselves in caring and kindness.  As our love for ourselves deepens, so does our connection and expression of our Divinity.  We become open to our Divine Union. As we express that Union in the world, we express our caring for all creation, we express our compassion.

A daily act of caring and kindness toward ourselves is a small step. That small step grows to embracing yourself and then the world.  Loving yourself is free but it is the most valuable gift you have to give! Thanks for reading! Much love Linda
