Pema Chödrön: Compassion Practice Is Daring

 Compassion practice is daring.  
It involves learning to relax and allow 
ourselves to move gently toward 
what scares us.  
The trick to doing this is to stay 
with emotional distress without tightening 
into aversion, to let fear soften us rather 
than harden into resistance.
