Compassion is the sympathetic pity and concern for the sufferings and misfortunes of others, accompanied with the strong desired to alleviate it.
Self-compassion, is reflection, understanding, forgiveness, accepting God’s forgiveness, and not judging or sentencing yourself. I would also say, maybe not believing in hell in the first place.

mosque vs. mosquito, revisited:
the answer? etymologically unrelated (of course)
'mosquito' (little fly, in spanish) first appeared in 1583
mosque (from arabic, masjid, place of prostration) dates from PM
PM? Prophet Mohammed (back in the day, 570-632AD)
although a Sufi might consider a fly one of God's creatures, and therefore a mosquito as a little mosque? just a thought. Interestingly, only the female mosquitoes bite. They need the blood for the development of their eggs. The males feed only on plant juices.
I have illiterate/uneducated, (or possibly dumb or inconsiderate?) roommates (or some, anyway) that can't get the recycling right. It shouldn't be a problem.

martial arts and self-defense
sequences and mechanics of moves, experience and combinations/footwork, training practice exercise fitness and conditioning, discipline and dedication, instinct, fighting spirit, will to win, simplicity, personal, own style, repetition, repertoire, bruce lee, creativity, breadth, non-violence, pacifism, no-self, run away, defuse, submit (e.g. just give them your wallet), strength endurance speed power flexibility, skill and technique and readiness and preparedness and preparation, facility, learn and teach, see do feel, know both sides: offense, defense, right side, left side, dojos and senseis and gis and belts and competitions.
FFFFF: philosophy, fun, fitness, friends (and fury?!)
for use/applicaton in different situations, e.g. (special forces, bouncers, rape, street fights)
simplicity: an 8 part move is difficult in real life fight situation:
keep it simple and effective, relentless, vicious
aikido is the art of peace, non-violent, pacifist, doesn't injure, submissions, "the art of hitting people with planets", like weeble wobbles, learning to fall, roll, blend with attacker's energy, and eventually students ideally come to "dance" as both offense, defense, uke and nage.
jujitsu is "101 ways to get to the groin" (-my friend Mary)
BJJ is grappling (most fights end up on ground), Gracies often win MMA fights
tackling and bringing submissions
krav maga, the Israeli defense forces art, meaning contact combat in Hebrew, is known for being brutal, no-nonsense, good for women vs. rape, and incorporating different arts.
Bruce Lee created Jeet Kun Do, from Wing Chun, a type of Kung Fu. Wing Chun is a hard art to learn well, and uses the wooden dummies, for close contact, fast, and dangerous (e.g. the eyes) overwhelming attack.
JKD? way of the intercepting fist. WC? Singing Spring. KF? any skill acquired through learning or practice (work, achievement, merit). Wushu means 'martial art.'
Capoeira is beautiful, like a dance, with athletic, acrobatic and gymnastic moves, designed by slaves in Brazil, I think.
most dojos have a free introductory session, go to all of them and learn heaps!
caution is wise, but don't let anxiety, paranoia pervade or take over
warmth, openness, acceptance, excitement
string of associations:
God is love. God is a man of war. Love is a battlefield. Chess is war. War is the art of deception. God is the devil. God is hate. God is a woman of peace.
