A balance between wisdom and compassion? Sometimes it seems like I get so caught up in the wisdom and thinking, that I forget to allow myself to feel things and to care for other people. Before, it seemed to be the polar opposite. I had so much care for others that my emotions blinded me from seeing truths that stood before me. I was playing in the dirt, but no magnifying glass to see the creatures that lurked below.

I worry that if I *do* allow myself to focus on and start feeling things again, I'll get too caught up in the emotion and in the moment to have clarity or insight. 

Is there a way to find balance in both? At what times should I focus on wisdom, and at what times focus on compassion?
