Compassion & Love – A Happy Course Module (Kings County)
Compassion is a heartfelt wish for freedom from dissatisfaction and distress, while love is a wish for happiness and flourishing. Described as deeply interconnected, the two ideas go hand in hand, are mutually supportive and equally important to our own and others’ wellbeing. Because compassion is a response to suffering, we are able to feel a tender concern toward any living being that is suffering. It is a capacity or skill that can be trained by building awareness of our biases, common humanity and interdependence, to help expand our compassion and make it more inclusive.
