Life 101...seriously

Jody — 4/23/2009 1:33:32 PM (archived)

Darlin'...anything that can get humans to take focus off of our ego [ our strength and our weakness] and to give and receive compassion is a good thing. It becomes a symbiotic relationship. We are all one....no better...no worse...remember this.

It is always better to give than receive and it is very humbling...

You'll see...one day.
