Humble Compassion
Adar II 1, 5771 · March 7, 2011
By Tzvi Freeman

There is compassion that feeds the ego and there is compassion that humbles it.

Compassion that feeds the ego is a sense of pity for those who stand beneath you.

Compassion that humbles is born of a deeper understanding of the order of things:

When you understand that your fellow man is suffering in order that you may be privileged to help him
--then you are truly humbled.




By Tzvi Freeman
