Putting yourself in the place of others

Putting yourself in the place of other people is a great aid in acquiring internal kindness, because then love comes naturally, as do pain, humility, and gratitude to God through continuous hymns of praise and prayer of the heart for our neighbor.

Then our prayer is both well-pleasing to God and helps our fellow human beings.
