To me, The most powerful way to live is from a place of compassion, From truly not wanting anybody else to suffer, Any other being to suffer. And when we can truly embody that, When we can truly want that, When we can truly feel it, When we're in that place. It draws us out of our small, Self-centered, Egoic ways of living, And it actually draws us into reality, Into life, Where we can connect with others in not only more compassionate ways, But more authentic and creative and present ways. The real reason that living from a place of compassion is the most powerful way to live is because when we practice this, When we embody it. Our hearts begin to open. And when our heart begins to open, We tap into the greatest source of power that there ever was, Love.
