"Kindness and compassion are indeed skills we develop.
Not in the sense of forcing ourselves to feel, or even worse, pretend to feel, an emotion that is not there.
Instead, if we learn to pay attention in a different, more open way-
seeing the good within ourselves instead of fixating on what we don’t like,
noticing those we usually ignore or look right through,
letting go of categories and assumptions when we relate to others
-we are creating the conditions for kindness and compassion to flow."
