These attitudes are known, ultimately, by their fruits. Compassion links us to others and draws us into action. Hope opens doors of possibility which otherwise are not noticed. Forgiveness affects the way we live and how we hold our heads. A true heart is an instrument for good spirit.
Good spirit changes both the conception and performance of a day.
It takes a person to places which could not have been envisioned when despair and negativity were ruling. Great human journeys begin in a single moment of free, light, open, loving, good spirit. There are many things which can only be understood from this vantage point. Otherwise, there is no energy to see these things, and no place in ones own spirit to echo and affirm what is seen. A tiny seed of good news must be present so that a larger beautiful view may be perceived.
