Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It’s a relationship between equals.*
Brené Brown
Reality does not provide meaning. Stories do.**
Robert McKee
Compassion is a story
we co-create–
Though one may write
the first line and the other
the last,
If written alone
or on behalf of another,
It isn’t compassion.
*Brené Brown’s The Gifts Of Imperfection;
