Affirm for living through compassion and kindness | C is for compassion. Today, I see a stranger through the eyes of compassion. Before I act out of ego which actually creates separateness, I will remind myself that this stranger has parents and people who love her or him JUST LIKE ME. I will remind myself that this stranger has moments of joy JUST LIKE ME. I will remind myself that this stranger has moments of anguish and suffering JUST LIKE ME. I will remind myself that this stranger will one day grow old JUST LIKE ME. I will remind myself that this stranger will go through the cycles of illness and recovery JUST LIKE ME. I will remind myself that this stranger will one day die JUST LIKE ME. Through the eyes of compassion I will look at all people I meet not as a stranger but as a living soul JUST LIKE ME.
