I don't beat myself up with what I should have done, could have done, would have done. I would abolish cynicism. Being cynical is confused with being intelligent and sophisticated, and I think it just saps energy. There's no payoff to it except to hear your own words. Cheapness in people and especially cheapness in spirit.
People are so stingy with love, gestures of appreciation and gratitude.
They choose not to share kindness. People hoard love like they're going to run out of it. I used to think this, too. I fell in love with the cat and it taught me that love is unlimited. People act like love's a small commodity and they can't give it away.
