When have you been overwhelmed with compassion?

1 Answer

Answer :

Being compassionate may be one of the human characteristics. I have felt compassionate on very many ocassions. People are also suffering so much in the world. There was this poor family who had a baby girl who developed a blister-like pimple on the thigh. The parents squeezed it thinking it was an access. The thing developed into a very big swelling which covered the front of the girl. She could not answer to the calls of nature. I really felt compassionate that I withdrew all my savings and gave them for medication. Unfortunately the young lady passed on. I felt much grief and was overcome with sorrow. However I learnt life is too short and we are here for a season.
