Compassion is a feeling, if etymology indicates that it comes from the Latin "Cumpassio" which means "Accompany". It basically consists in that a person can share with another person a suffering that is happening at that moment. The grief without being the same is transmitted to the person who feels compassion for another, but they do not suffer the same, however, people who are compassionate towards others show the affected person a support that is important in difficult moments of life.
Compassion can be involuntary, it can be given by the morals and good habits of the person. Compassion and humility are two feelings that are generally adopted by the person in the family education they receive as children, since parents are always compassionate towards children because they are always defenseless and unprotected from the external agents that are in them. the social environment. This phenomenon is clearly seen in the love that a mother shows for her children, so we can deduce that these types of feelings are easily transferred from the mother to the child.
Historically and culturally, manifestations of kindness and compassion are demonstrated en masse by religious and charitable institutions. There is always a public entity that is in charge of showing the kindest sides of the dependencies by performing works of charity and benevolence. Homeless children, starving families and homeless are the ones who need the most compassion from the collective they require in the world.
