The theme for this month’s #1000Speak for Compassion post is
simply that “compassion”. I feel like it should be a simple thing. Compassion. It should be something that we
all inherently have as a part of us when we’re born. Something that we feel
towards others. That we don’t have to
nurture. That just exists.
The sad truth is – the world doesn’t work that way. Compassion isn’t automatic. Although we’re all human, we don’t all have empathy towards our fellow humans. The news, the internet, even just going for a walk outside – you can see people everywhere who seem to lack empathy for others.
