Flying on the wings of wisdom and compassion….

~

~

A bird needs two wings to fly.
Like the bird, we also benefit from using two wings…
the wings of “wisdom” and “compassion.”

~

One wing can be represented by “wisdom”… the perspectives and deep insights  about the nature of  life, the universe,  people and their interactions.

~

The other wing can be represented by “compassion”…  a sense of connection, love, kindness, acceptance and the heartfelt wish for all others to be free from unhappiness or suffering.

~

Wisdom, without compassion, might be aloof or dispassionate.
Compassion, without wisdom, might be overwhelming.
Together they enhance and balance each other.
Wisdom and Compassion

And so….
may we all develop the ability
to fly on the two wings
of wisdom and compassion
