“It is compassion rather than the principle of justice which can guard us against being unjust to our fellow men.”
~ Bruce Lee
One comes from the heart, the other from the mind. One brings understanding, the other rationalization. One brings inner resolution, the other outer recognition.
Only compassion can bring about forgiveness and restore alignment with our Higher Selves. And you can rest assured, my friend, that no harm is ever done from that place of alignment with all that is.
