Treating Others with Compassion
Embodying compassion can reap radical goodness and happiness for others and ourselves, if we’re brave enough to face it and fight the cynical urge to run away.

Mental-emotional synergy begins with the choice to not think in terms of mutual exclusivity: that we must either think with our head, or act on our hearts.
Escape the endless stream of thought, anxiety and over-thinking; that voice that continually harps upon all that is wrong in your life and bad in your world.
Should regret either be harnessed (utilized for our benefit) or holstered (put away, neglected, denied outright)? Or is the answer to find a blend of the two?
At some point, patience will push us to a place where we realize that more is needed than simply being patient alone; we must make the Choice to do more.
Acting as a counterweight provides balance for others and contributes toward our collective happiness by helping establish emotional order, rhythm and harmony.
Through concentrated efforts of intent introspection, we can actually begin to condition our minds to better endure emotional swings and find peaceful balance.
The best way to alleviate one’s own emotional pain and suffering is to not focus on ourselves, our pain or its causes; but instead to focus on giving to others.
Our thoughts about and actions toward others are a mirror that offer a perfect reflection of how we feel about ourselves. The reflection is highly beneficial.
The Two-Way Street of Giving theory is a simple way to conceptualize the difference between giving for the “right” reasons and giving for the “wrong” reasons.
Venting your anger, frustration, and emotions online on Twitter, Facebook or a blog is no different than venting on a public sidewalk; the entire world sees it.
Inner pacifism is striving for “oneness” of the mind, because when you are internally divided against yourself, one side of you will necessarily lose.
