Happiness takes place when the heart is at peace, not only with our own tranquility, but besides, as part of a commitment of Love towards everything in the universe.
Peace is the development of good, not only as a feeling of the heart but also by exercising justice and compassion, knowing that we learn from everyone and that is also necessary to guide the ones who has less knowledge, by providing the conditions of life, where progress can be achieved.
Then, we will have true wisdom because we will be sharing our life, emphasizing fraternal love and solidarity feelings, while trying to learn and understand more about peace, about overcoming violence, as well as about the crisis of lack of values and the lack of opportunities.
This is everyone’s duty and is a very simple, real and necessary Wisdom.
Will you please allow me to add something on compassion?
Compassion is an understanding of the emotional state of another or oneself. Not to be confused with empathy, compassion is often combined with a desire to alleviate or reduce the suffering of another or to show special kindness to those who suffer. However, compassion may lead an individual to feel empathy with another person.

Compassion is often characterized through actions, wherein a person acting with compassion will seek to aid those they feel compassionate for. Acts of compassion are generally considered those which take into account the pain of others and attempt to alleviate that pain. In this sense, the various forms of the Golden Rule are in part based on the concept of compassion, if also on the concept of empathy.
Compassion differs from other forms of helpful or humane behavior in that its focus is primarily on the alleviation of pain and suffering. Acts of kindness which seek primarily to confer benefit rather than relieve existing pain and suffering are better classified as acts of altruism, although, in this sense, compassion itself can be seen as a subset of altruism, it being defined as the type of behavior which seeks to benefit others by reducing their suffering.
