It shuts people down. Makes people not care anymore. Unless you can be hurt and care, nothing can help. Suffering teaches you how to live in the world. Unless you allow yourself to be hurt, you can't be compassionate for others who hurt.
People have to change their own destiny.
The only way to do that is to stay open, even if it hurts. I have a strong sense of self, work, my value system, my spirituality. Copyright '98-'99, El Paso Inc., All rights reserved Designed by Sigma 4, Inc.
