The exploration of our inner selves starts with our self opening to compassion with our selves.
How can we open with compassion if we do not know where we lack compassion? We do know. Inside us there is an inner voice that directs us and guides us.
Depending on what part of that inner voice we hear, we may need to allow our hearts to speak for us. This is Love. That voice is you too. Compassion in ourselves allows us to be better conduits and channelers of information. The deeper the compassion for self, the deeper compassion we have for others.
