"True compassion means not only feeling another's pain but also being moved to help relieve it." ~ Daniel Goleman
However small a gesture may seem or however large one may loom, and however hesitant we may feel to act upon nudges to help, courage is always near our compassion, ready to relieve our apprehension so that we can relieve another's pain.
With love,
