Remember that whatever anyone does, it is an effort to meet a need.

Always hear the 'Yes' in the 'No'.

When you ride the wave, the thrill is so exhilarating that you forget everything else. You live in the moment where nothing else matters, so intent on riding the wave perfectly that you and the wave become one. Pain and worry disappear, replaced by euphoria, akin to flow. Similarly, when giving empathy, you want to strive for this kind of total presence for the person you are listening to.

If you are a czar or a king or a president or someone that wants to control those below them you do not want people to have a consciousness of life, of their needs. Because people do not make good slaves when they're connected to life... That's why in the public schools the primary objective is obedience to authority.

When we are angry, killing people is too superficial.

Anger, depression, guilt, and shame are the product of the thinking that is at the base of violence on our planet.

Never hear what a jackal-speaking person thinks, especially what they think about you.
