There are several different ways of handling the suffering we see in life: One is to run away or flee the situation. Another is to deny, cover up or bury it. Still another is to have compassion or care about the people affected by suffering without considering the long-term implications of getting involved. Sometimes alleviating suffering should not be our only motivation.
The next time you’re faced with suffering, step back and look at the big picture before you react. Consider that suffering should not rule your life or alter your main purpose and goals. Then decide on your course of action. This will ensure that your response will fit your life purpose while still helping those in need. Comment here.
