I am compromised by a few small circumstances. I wish it wasn't so, but on the scale of life compromises this is minuscule. Compromises, however, do create humility. I remember years ago being somewhat judgemental about people facing similar compromises, and now as I look back, I recognize how insensitive that was--we cannot be sensitive enough to one another.
Similarly, I was with a loved one who faces some compromising situaitons recently. She noted that she was embarrassed. I replied, I know how difficult this is, but I'll face these challenges one day too. We just have to deal with it.
I subscribe to the school of energy management--I know that experiences, good and bad, create energy, and how we direct that energy matters. For example, where can I direct the energy created by compromise. First, I'll direct the energy to good care. Next, I'll direct energy to preventing such compromising situaitons in the future, and then I'll direct what's left to other, more pleasurable pursuits.
We can use any experiences life for betterment if we take the time to find the meaning and energy capsulated in those experiences. Onward.
