By practicing compassion for others, we experience compassion too. In that moment there is an action which creates an experience of compassion–for the other, as well as for the self. 

If we seek something, be it. Then you have the experience rather than seeking something you cannot access and experiencing whatever is attached to not having–perhaps annoyance, frustration, sadness, what may be. By doing it or being it–compassion, empathy, patience we experience, feel, sense, attain the very thing we seek. 

Practice not expecting the event to come to you. Be it. We experience what we are.

Over the years, I have experienced remarkable people sit with me and detail deep, meaningful memories. In many cases, these memories are attached to strong emotions which may distort the person's perception of themselves. I firmly believe that any person who makes a conscious decision to engage in therapy demonstrates strength. Time after time, I have witnessed these same people recognize the resiliency within themselves—that has always been there!
