I was watching a TV show recently, and two of tha characters were having a conversation and one mentioned that the other that they believed compassion was a weakness.
This got me thinking. Some people do think compassion is a weakness, but if you really think about it, it is more of a sign strength.
Compassion, in certain scenerios, is an extension of grace to a person or persons who could potentially come back and bite the one extending compassion's hand.
I for one would rather eliminate a threat than extend it a courtsey such as compassion. Now, my general motive is simply the fact that I dont like having to watch my back at all moments of the day. But I know others who deny compassion becaise they are afraid of what could happen if they extend compassion and their good-will is turned on them.
So, I might edit this post later or maybe add to it but, basically, I believe compassion is a sign of great strength, not of weakness of any kind or intensity.
Talk more later,
