You believe you are a compassionate person and
you probably are. When you hear about a sad happening, you wish you could help.
Every now and then you feel really “good” and would like to succor every needy person. You see the misery, the
suffering, the wars that are afflicting the world and feel a flow of love and
compassion spring out of your heart. You want to run out there and give your
help, your love to all. But, after watching the news for a while, you change
the channel and everything is forgotten. It exists neither in your mind nor in
your heart any more. What made you sad disappeared and now you are enjoying the
latest pop song or laughing at your favorite comedian’s jokes. Your view of the
world has changed in a whim. This is how fickle the human nature is. Nothing wrong with it. It just is. But, maybe, it could be worth thinking about it, every now and then.
