When I hit anyone, even a Jehovah's Witness, I feel bad. When I hug someone I feel good. If it's never worked in the past, I bet it'll never work in the future. I believe that the individual solutions are different for each one of us, but I also believe that the principles leading to and through the solutions are axioms for us all and are as clear and acceptable as rain, gravity, food and sleep. I see many missing the simple things that work because the simple things that work are too obvious.
Nothing feels like control quite like power.
Power is a reality while control is an illusion. Power can be a drug. I went places I didn't want to go, to see people I didn't know, to buy things I didn't need, with money I didn't have, to impress people I didn't like. I had problems with jobs, relationships, money, people, places, and things. I was always in a hurry.
