I have learned forgiveness, compassion, having respect for myself and others and finding out what true love is all about.  Love that is pure, not jealous. not envious.  And that there is hope in true believing in Jesus being your and my saviour and path to eternal happiness and love.  Life can only get better and from being nothing and sent by God you have a means of saving yourself through believing in Him and in yourself and letting Him be the centre of your thoughts,heart,mind soul and spirit.

Compassion for me is to have feelings of simpathy,empathy,love,respect for another person.  You show the other person mercy for any wrong doings or the sharing of goodwill and laughter.  When someone is sad or hurt you go to that person either talking, holding a hand, giving a hug or just being there for the person to have someone to talk to.  It is like me having Jesus to talk to as He is the master of being compassionate and can we really learn to be like him by following His footsteps.  Compassion is to share caring and comfort without asking anything in return.
