Is There a Good Reason for This Feeling?

We don't have to know the reason, but what we do need to do is trust that there's a good reason for the feeling you're having. Just having that compassionate attitude can be enough of a justification to treat yourself as tenderly as if i had lost a friend or gotten fired from my job. And this is something we oppress ourselves with all the time, that feeling of, well, i don't have any right to the feeling because i have enough to eat and it's warm in here.
