Regardless of someone’s beliefs or the story they might be telling you - even if something they say surprises you or is very different to how you feel about things - you are not going to leave your compassion for this person very easily or very readily.
In the past, maybe a different belief or a different idea was a trigger for you or a reason to walk away. But for many on the planet right now, taking the time to be able to listen a little longer rather than reacting, walking away or pulling away (and, more importantly, staying in compassion) is where we are moving to. And deeply feeling compassion for the pain of others - remember that all of us have gone through tough things in our life.
