Hello, beautiful vibrational soul!
For the month of December, I am on this kick of exploring a few words we throw out there in our lives here on planet earth.
As we head into the new decade, I want to do everything in my power to have the vibration of the collective on this planet, higher. When it’s higher, there is more self-love, love for others, and wonderful juicy side effects of kindness, empathy, and compassion.
This week, let’s explore the word compassion.
I turned yet again to our good friend Webster for insight on the word.
com·pas·sion
noun
1. sympathetic pity and concern for the sufferings or misfortunes of others.
“the victims should be treated with compassion”
Similar:
pity
sympathy
feeling
fellow feeling
empathy
understanding
At the beginning of this month, I was exploring the definition and my interpretation of the word love.
As I re-read that blog and thought about it, I had an ‘ah-ha’ moment. I now have a deeper clarity.
I already knew that what I know about how I love and express love can be different than others. It’s not wrong or right, it is just different.
I believe my love is so deep, innate and understood by myself, that it expresses itself out into the world as compassion.
AAhhhhhh…………that explains a lot!
Compassion for me is like, an extension of myself! It’s not a noun or a verb but an integral piece of who I authentically am! I just do it without thinking about it.
In knowing this, I feel more at ease in how I express love in this world. I feel more understood by myself, as a soul walking around in this body form having these experiences in this time-space continuum. I realize now, that I have experienced enough times, the lessons of what it is to be compassionate that I now get it. I get it so much that I am good at it. (not in a bragging kinda way, but in a way that sheds light on an insight).
Why I felt I needed to explain myself to you in the parentheses, is another thing for me to contemplate. But for now, my lovely reader, I was concerned with how you see me. I wouldn’t want you to think I was conceited or braggy or……oh this monkey mind of an ego!!!
I invite you to sit back, relax and contemplate how you love. How do you love yourself? Others? How deep is your love? (wait, isn’t that a song?)
What are your words to describe how you love? How will you express love in 2020 and going forward?
Until next time…..
