Speaking Understanding, Compassion, Sympathy

There has been some interesting things I have been discovering the past 2 weeks. And I am ready to share it. So the words understanding, compassion and sympathy. There have been two notable people who I knew in my life who lived these words within their voice. Where when they spoke to me, its as if all my barriers came down. Because I felt and believed that they saw me, that they were willing to understand, to not judge, to hear me, that they saw me. You could also say they lived kindness and consideration in those moments of speaking.

Like when they asked “how are you?” Those simple words that we hear all the time, but when they said it, MAN, that was real, or I felt it like a punch in the gut. It oozed from their voice, their sound.

So recently too, I uncovered the same point for me. For me to live kindness, sympathy, compassion towards myself. Where I can speak to myself and say how are you? With the same tonality or sound. I repeat, with the certain sound or tonality of compassion, sympathy, caring and understanding. You can also call it being genuine when asking the question: how are you.

 I believe that I accessed this sound of these words, by simply being REAL in having sympathy for myself in understanding how tough things are for me in a certain area of my life. With that understanding and showing sympathy to myself the sound came out naturally. And I can feel something within me which shows me the point of sympathy.

When speaking this sound, it feels like all my barriers drop. All my struggle drops. I become limp. All my holding onto and sustaining drops. I understand that it’s just for this moment. It’s not like a permanent state or anything like that. The need to be someone or do something drops.   I feel like I am melting. I melt at my sound.

This is what I have discovered so far. We’ll see how it goes, and how this opens up.
