"In the grasp of tearing someone else apart, are we destroying our own sensibilities? Can we ever get to a point where we treat each other with respect no matter what creed, color or religion? Isn’t it time to put schadenfreude out of it’s misery?"

"Life is full of suffering, but it’s also full of love. For everything that can cause heartache, there is something that can cause joy. For everything that can cause hate, there is something that causes love. Love can become the stronger component if we make a point to channel it daily in everything we do."

"We live in a society where men especially are afraid to be tender. Afraid to cry. Afraid to have feelings because they look at feelings as weakness. Though we know that’s nonsense, that still doesn’t stop many men from posturing or peacocking.
As we mature, we construct steel barriers to protect ourselves, but in the process we become hard, jaded, angry, unhappy and hurtful when situations don’t go our way.
We lose focus and we no longer keep our eyes forward. Situations that leave a bad taste in our mouths can find their way down to our hearts. That’s when we begin to close off and retreat into a world of darkness. However, we can reverse the process.
When we feel that we are going into a dark moment, we can remember the moments that we felt love and tenderness. The times when we were taught something new. When we learned how to fly. Not to forget the people who touched our hearts. We can’t deny ourselves tenderness. It can save our heart."
