it’s all very easy isn’t it leonie, showing compassion for a friend, loved one, or anyone else you hold dear.

what i really want to know is…

  • how easy is it for you to show the same amount of compassion to a bleary-eyed, swaying-drunk stranger who is throwing up on his shoes (and the pavement close to you), creating an awful smell and a mess on the sidewalk in the middle of the day?
  • how easy/hard is it for you to not judge another being at this moment?
