A fantastic article. I agree with every single word.

'Many children have internalised the mistaken idea that good mental health means feeling good all the time. But discomfort is not a problem to be solved, it is a necessary part of life we must all learn to willingly endure.'

From the moment of our birth, love and compassion are important as the basis of our survival. It's fundamental human nature to be compassionate. Scientists say that since human beings are social creatures, they naturally care for others. We can't survive by ourselves.
