You'll find people less threatening if you hear what they're needing rather than what they're thinking about you.

At the core of all anger is a need that is not being fulfilled.

The only time a message (label) can scare us is if we think there is such a thing, and that such a thing is a disgrace.

If you are a jackal, you will try to reassure. Jackals try to fix people in pain. They can't stand pain, but make matters worse by trying to get rid of it. Put on giraffe ears. Try to hear what they are feeling and needing.

Miracles can happen when we can keep our consciousness away from analyzing and classifying one another.

When we are depressed, our thinking blocks us from being aware of our needs, and then being able to take action to meet our needs.

Classifying and judging people promotes violence.
