Love & Compassion "The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference." - Elie Wiesel. When we allow ourselves to turn away, to stop caring, we become numb to the very experiences that make us human. Indifference builds walls and distances us from others, letting suffering and loneliness take hold in the silence. Though there will be people who are hard to love-who frustrate us or even hurt us—it's in those moments we must strive to respond with compassion. Love isn't about being unconditionally happy; it's about recognizing someone's humanity and choosing to come from a place of empathy and understanding, no matter how challenging it may be.
