In reverse

Compassion is a uniquely human quality. Compassion is made up of two words, 'co' meaning together and 'passion' meaning a strong feeling. You will notice also that in the compassionate person, care and love towards others has its origins in care and love for oneself. We can really understand others when we really understand ourselves. We will know what's best for others when we know what's best for ourselves. We can feel for others when we feel for ourselves.

I feel like I've come away from myself. I haven't been living authentically. I feel spiritually broke. I need to refill my bank with things that make me happy. And I know that happiness comes from giving myself away, caring for others so that they are happy. I have been too caught up in my own survival that I've lost sight of what my true calling is; that is to share the gift of health and wellness.  

I need to surround myself with people whom have a higher sense of themselves. Those whom have a purpose beyond being consumerists. 

I just feel like I've been around so much negativity lately, which isn't what I need right now. I haven't been true to my own preachings. 

If you're unhappy, change it.
