Soul’s Talking Brain

I heard it said once, that the greatest emotion one can have for another is COMPASSION, as opposed to the all time favourite, LOVE.
Well, YOU can imagine, BEing the BEing that I am, ALL about living through/by/within/of LOVE’s Light, that the statement took me a for a little loop-de-loop
Which is ALLWays a GOOD thing!!!
Ya never want to “rest of your laurels” as the saying goes, choosing to be happy with that which is, simply because it is, including or more appropriately stated, ESPECIALLY when it comes to YOUr own KNOWledge base and AWAREness!!

So pondering away I went through my loop-de-loop, analyzing the statement, the facts, weighing the validity of the specific make up regarding the definitions of these two words, “Compassion” and “Love”. Looking at each from a general and personal perspective, albeit each as understood and more so, experienced by ME.
Hey….’tis me who was do’in the analyz’in now!! I have to understand wholly ANYthing in my own mind, BEfore venturing forth to share even a glimpse with others.
Just the way I am.
That BEing said, I concluded, at the time, that this BEing’s statement that “Compassion, in fact, and NOT LOVE was the Greater of the two emotions one can express”, as definitely having some fantabulous & insightfull points.

OF course, that ALL depends on one’s definition of both.

See, when it comes to language, regardless of what the dictionary states, and let’s be honest here, the dictionary IS MAN MADE,, tend to be open to interpretation. Each individual uses language in accord to their own learned customs. For example, to one person saying “I Love YOU” can be an expression they use ALL the time, something they feel should BE stated to ALL BEings unto our Blessed Earth School as each and every one of us is ONE of an ALL to which we are all part- ALL Miracles of Creation.
For another, saying “I Love YOU” is reserved ONLY for those “special” Miracles within their life.

So many ways of using the same word, so many meanings therein, TRUEly ANY comparative analysis is subject to the individual so performing.
Alas, I digress….thank GOODness for editing!
If I let my SELF wander off with my Mind’s multitude of thought waves, well, I think ya know what I mean, n’est ce pas

When I think about Compassion, feeling passion for another BEing, passion of positivity and LOVE, I think of the AWEsome Gift of GIVing, the Gift of Patience with/for another BEing, another YOU. I think of how LOVEly it is when one of WE, sees another, as another “ME”, and is patient enough with this other BEing/SELF to LISTEN, to Hear what the other is saying, SEE, what the other is experiencing in life, and thus Understand their experience as though it were YOUr own.

NOW, that is a GIFT!!
A Gift of LOVE’s Light.

Ya, I’m a LOVE Bug

To express Compassion for another, is to KNOW LOVE, it is to know TRUTH, and thus LOVE. We are miracles of Life, each of us a reflection of Light, and thus ALL an expression of ONE another.
To be able to show compassion, is due to our BEing able to feel such for SELF, to LOVE SELF.
Thus, in LOVing, we are able to express Compassion.

Which got me thinking….see! Told ya, that Marvelous BEautiFull Mind of mine
What about Empathy?
I am an aware empathic, we are ALL empathic, as we are psychic, etc…it’s merely that some of us have forgotten and more over have not received an appropriate education to enhance these NATURAL skills of ours, as we have others.

BEing an aware Empath, and having just finished watching the movie “Awakenings” with my son, Zion, the comment about Compassion and Love came to my mind. Talk about an empathy inducing experience!!
Which of course got me to thinking, if I were to compare Compassion with Empathy, as did our “mystery BEing”, Compassion with Love, I’d have to say, Empathy would be the next step from Compassion towards complete LOVE.

Compassion is a deep understanding of another’s experience, where as Empathy is the FEELing of BEing in the other’s experience. It is more of a Subjective experience rather than one more concentrated on the Objective.
It is a BEautiFull melding of the two.

Empahty is something we ALL are, we ALL do, and like Compassion it is merely allowing one’s SELF to LOVE SELF enough to assist another YOU.
To GIVE the Gift of LOVE to another, by DOing ALL YOU can to TRUEly understand their experience, by placing one’s SELF into the other’s place, objectively and subjectively.

Ahhhhhhhhhh……are we deciphering my comparative analytical conclusions??
Is it Love or Compassion or, as I have now added, Empahty???

Both Compassion and Empathy require LOVE. Both require we be in touch with our intrinsic BEingness as a LOVEing person and thus are each an individual expression of the many multi faceted aspects of LOVE…..just like ALL of WE.

I told ya I was a LOVE bug

Here’s to the Compassion and Empathy expressed by. To, for, within, through, ALL of WE to one another, in the experience of our Every NOW

Gotta LOVE the LOVE!!
