Compassion towards ourselves and others can lead to greater understanding from "summary" of The Language of Emotions by Karla McLaren

Compassion is an essential emotion that allows us to connect with the suffering of others and offer support and understanding. When we cultivate compassion towards ourselves and others, we are able to develop a deeper sense of empathy and insight into the human experience. By showing compassion towards ourselves, we can learn to acknowledge and accept our own struggles and challenges without judgment. This self-compassion allows us to approach our emotions with kindness and understanding, rather than criticism and avoidance. Similarly, when we extend compassion towards others, we are able to truly listen to their experiences and emotions without trying to fix or change them. This deep level of understanding can help us build stronger relationships and foster a sense of connection and empathy with those around us. When we approach ourselves and others with compassion, we create a space for healing and growth. Instead of reacting impulsively or defensively to difficult emotions, we can respond with patience and kindness, allowing for a greater sense of understanding and acceptance. In this way, compassion becomes a powerful tool for navigating the complexities of human emotions and relationships. It allows us to bridge the gap between ourselves and others, fostering a sense of unity and empathy that can lead to greater peace and understanding in our lives.
