Compassion from others from "summary" of Autobiografía de un esclavo by Juan Francisco Manzano
The kindness I received from others during my time as a slave was like a ray of light in the darkness of my existence. These acts of compassion were rare, but they were powerful enough to give me hope and remind me of my humanity. I remember one particular instance when a stranger showed me unexpected kindness. This man, who had no reason to care for me, offered me food and shelter when I was at my lowest point. His compassion touched me deeply and renewed my faith in the goodness of people.
Even within the confines of slavery, there were moments of compassion that helped me endure the harsh realities of my existence. Whether it was a kind word from a fellow slave or a small act of generosity from a master, these moments reminded me that there was still goodness in the world.
The compassion I received from others was like a lifeline, keeping me afloat in a sea of cruelty and oppression. It gave me the strength to carry on, even when the weight of my chains threatened to drag me down.
In the face of such adversity, these acts of kindness were like precious jewels, giving me a glimmer of hope in the darkest of times. They were a reminder that, despite the inhumanity I faced on a daily basis, there was still love and compassion to be found in the world.
The compassion I received from others was a powerful force that sustained me through the most difficult moments of my life. It was a reminder that, no matter how dire my circumstances may be, there would always be those who were willing to offer a helping hand and show me kindness.
