Compassion is only a word if your heart like a stone you do make and from any true action of kindness you do refrain.

I’m sorry to hear that you are sick Grandpa. I hope that you get well soon. If you are still sick a week from now, I will be glad to visit you, because right now I need to hurry back to my show before it comes back from its commercial break.
It is only when you open your heart and give of your time and effort that compassion ceases to be an empty word, and converts into blessed action.

Oh Grandpa, my poor sick Grandpa. I rushed right over the moment I realized that you were sick. Let me sit on your chest and keep you company. That way you will be warm and have a front row seat to my adorable puppy smile, that way you will be sure to feel better in no time.
Got something to say? Go for it!
