Generating Compassion For Others

Image by youngdoo

When we take the time to look after our relatives, we learn to ultimately care for our human family. 

Because of our closeness with our family members, we tend to have more empathy for their struggles. This intimacy in our families in turn provides the context for generating compassion for others. 

As we learn about unconditional love through our family members, we notice that this love grows and naturally begins to flow to others. 

We see that because of our humanity, all of us are related in some way and our family in fact reaches beyond our relatives. 

By demonstrating kindness and love to your immediate relatives today, you will find a greater interconnectedness with your human family. — DailyOM
