Compassion

A couple of friends (anidada and kores_rabbit) have already posted this elsewhere. I think it bears boosting. So here it is again.

I love it, and wonder why it didn't make the rounds on FB yet. So I vectored it. :D Thank you.

It's making them in a few circles - that's where I saw it first, and I posted it there as well.

My one and only nitpick is that I'd like to see the phrases "even those considered our enemies" changed to "especially those considered our enemies." It's not too hard to show compassion to those who are like us. It's a lot harder to extend your empathy to the entire human race.

That's awesome - will repost.
I like seeing this kind of thing. It makes me not feel so lonely in my quest to be decent.

And for the record I like the phrase " even those considered our enemies " as it acknowledges that even though we're weak at times we need to work past it.
