It was perhaps said best many years ago in a popular song of yours: “What the world needs now is love, sweet love. It’s the only thing that there’s just too little of.”

As you know from your life experiences, the ability to feel human and animal compassion can surface as human love for a person or for a helpless animal that is beaten or abused. If you are someone who feels the need to help another person who is being bullied, you are compassionate and loving. The compassion you give evolves you and those around you. Your race, religion, and age do not matter. You are a light to the world that continues to evolve you and your planet.

Human love comes in all shapes, sizes, and degrees: a mother’s love, a friend’s love, a father’s love, a sister’s or brother’s love, a child’s love, a spouse’s love, and even a pet’s love. These types of love are all different in how they are demonstrated and expressed through the body’s emotions, actions, and words. There is only one kind of love that has no type or rules. This is called unconditional love. Once the heart learns to feel and see genuine love and compassion for another living being, compassion cannot help but radiate from a person’s eyes, smile, and actions.
