GAINING COMPASSION

- Simone

The article, ‘Better Angels’ (May issue) about rememberin­g to be kind and nonjudgeme­ntal to others was a gorgeous read and really helped me shift perspectiv­e and change my attitude.

The speed at which life changed with COVID-19 and lockdown was scary and challengin­g and I was both angry and frustrated, but mostly overwhelme­d.

I have felt judgement and honestly judged myself but having read this and stopped and taken a breath, this is the reality check I needed.

Compassion for others is one of the easiest and most beautiful traits one can have but it is often forgotten.

I am glad you opened my eyes to see the bright side of this and to remember that there are positives to everything.
