Paddy pulled open the closet door. "That' ridiculous," he said, "look in here. There is a yellow dress, a red dress, a print dress, a pantsuit…..Hi, Bill!" And he goes on, "A green dress…."
This is compassion! It is compassion to his wife, it is compassion to Bill. No jealousy, no fight, just simply,"Hi, Bill How are you?" and he goes on. He never even inquires, " What are doing in my closet?" Compassion is very understanding. It is the finest understanding that is possible to man.
