If one is truly great, one will love all humankind! - II

I posted this a year ago and it was originally discovered by me in 2014. The good part is I still believe in this wise and humane thought...Thank you, Hill.

If one is truly great, one will love all humankind!

If one is truly great, one will love all humankind! One will love the good and bad amongst all humanity. The good will be loved with pride, admiration and joy. The bad will be loved with pity and sorry, for one will know - if truly great - that both good and bad qualities of people are often but the results of circumstances over which they have, because of their ignorance, little control. 

To be truly great, one will be compassionate, sympathetic and tolerant. When compelled to pass judgement upon others, one will temper justice with tender mercy, throwing oneself always on the side of the weak, the uninformed and the poverty-stricken.

Thus one will not only go the extra mile in a true spirit of fellowship, but will also go willingly and graciously. And if the second mile be not enough, one must go the third and the fourth, and as many additional miles as may be necessary.

I picked this up and posted it in 2014. Now, looking at it, I am truly amazed that it took me six years to acknowledge it and believe it wholeheartedly. It's as if I have written it.
