Compassion

Compassion is having empathy or sympathy for someone else. It’s taking the time to help someone in need. It’s going out of your way to help someone less fortunate than you.
One time that I showed compassion was going on a mission trip during spring break. Me and a small group of girls from ORU went to Nashville to minister at Mercy Ministries. We helped around the facility – making beds and organizing offices. The best times were when we got to spend time with the girls that were there. We had compassion for them.
You can also show compassion in the web design and development industry. If there is a new student in class and he or she is having trouble figuring out something, you should have compassion on them and help them find the solution. We must remember that we were once the new kid and really appreciated our classmates helping us out.
Another way to show compassion is to help those who help the needy. An example could be there is a non-profit organization that helps the homeless that needs a website. You can be compassionate to them and create a website for them for less than you usually charge or for no fee at all.
