“Working with my mind and my emotions through meditation, I had learned that when I resist suffering, it festers and grows; and when I make friends with suffering, it softens and changes, eventually transforming altogether. I also learned to practice kindness and gentleness toward myself. Learning to open my heart to my own pain and struggles gave me the confidence to open my heart to the pain of others.”
