How admirable do you find his compassion?

In a world with few people who can exhibit such love and compassion for their partner, I was truly in awe of the way he loved his wife.

What I like the most about Dr. Berrah is his genuine and profound desire to understand all religions. His compassion to every person he meets, despite their religious differences, is something that I find inspiring.

Compassion is definitely an admirable quality and one we should have with all people, not just our spouses/loved ones, but with those we interact with as well. My husband is also a great example of that kind of love, I am blessed!

Very much!!! Not many people get loved the way he loves his wife. She’s certainly lucky that he loves her this much I always want to treat my girlfriend the way he treats his wife. He did inspire me to love my girlfriend more and I’m also such a fan of his relationship with his wife

Love like that is hard to find. Compassion is a great quality to have. I applaud the compassion that he demonstrates and found it to be very inspiring to read about

Not exclusively was the adoration and empathy for his significant other honorable. Be that as it may, his empathy stretched out to all individuals with whom he came in contact. In pretty much all that he did (that he related) he had his individual compatriots as a main priority. Nothing that he did appear to be out of absolutely selfish intentions. He was continually attempting to help other people, which shows a lot of sympathies.

I think that his love and compassion are something to aspire to in all relationships not just romantic ones. I also think that in relationships it is not the grand gestures that mean the most to people, but the small things that make their day a little bit brighter. I also like that the relationship with his wife was built upon mutual respect and understanding of one another as individuals and as a team.

I think his passion is one of the most admirable things about him. Even when his wife wasn't around to hear him, he spoke so highly of her and with genuine love and affection. I think it was such a beautiful sentiment. And he wasn't just a passionate man towards his wife. He brought that to every aspect of his life. His work as a scientist, where he made huge strides before he left to become a diplomat. His efforts in world peace were so inspiringly alruistic and he truly tried his best to achieve his goals. So yes, his passion was very admirable.

I found the love between him and his wife so admirable and genuine, for even the fact that the wife could write a book about him. I recently read the interview with his wife, and she said she remember this time that her husband went to talk to a smoking-pregnant lady and told her to please stop because of the sake of the unborn child. That is really a good attribute of compassion and how much more to be felt from the wife.

I don't have a partner, I can't relate to this.

But aside from his true love for his wife, his genuine care and determination to make other people's lives be better is something that I cherish. That's rare. I'd like to think that I already have that, but he inspires me to go beyond and put actions with it.

It's so rare to see someone who loves someone else with such altruism like this, I wish more people would love like that. Besides that, he lived an amazing life and took part in so many important historical events, even when those events didn't give him power, money, or anything like that. It's very altruistic, in my opinion.

It is! I'm not sure what I'd do if someone said otherwise. Now that that you mentioned it, as much as it inspires me, it also gives me hope. Maybe there's not a lot of them out there, but as long as there are people like Dr. Berrah, I have hope for a better future.

He must truly mean what he says if he speaks so highly of her when she isn't even there to hear it. It would be wonderful to be married to a man that thought so highly of his wife.

It seemed more than "kindly" to me. It was constant praise and adoration. It was intoxicating, borderline overwhelming. It was already years since they met each other, years since they got married, and yet his feelings remain the same. It makes me sigh and wish the same thing for myself.

When people love so much but still end up breaking up, I like to think that their love simply didn't match. We all have different needs, and sometimes, no matter how intense the love is, you have to let it go because it's not the right one for you. Or worse, they have a twisted view of love. What Dr. Berrah and Ms. Titi was really one of a kind.

And I really do find it admirable and inspiring. To my opinion, it was one of the best things one can learn from this book.

I just feel like if he read this he'd go, "No, I'm the lucky one!"

Anyway, I'm not sure if I should feel "inspired" to love my partner like this. I just feel like his love comes out naturally, which I think only makes sense because he's with his soulmate. I would definitely put in the effort, I would exhaust myself to prove my love. But what they had is dreamlike, something that only some of gets to be lucky enough to get.

In just about everything he did (that he recounted) he had his fellow countrymen in mind. Nothing that he did seemed to be out of purely egotistical motives. He was always trying to help others, which shows a great deal of compassion.

Right? His love for his wife was exceptional, but his love for all of humanity was really something else. Although it frustrates me, he's a firm believer of dialogue, even during the times when you need the use of iron fists instead. Nonetheless, I wish I met him, a man of so much care and compassion for others. I think I'd feel safe in his presence.
