"Here are some jewels describing what love is, from the perspective of a group of four- to eight-year-olds:
When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know your name is safe in their mouth.
Love is when you go out and eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give... you any of theirs.
And my favorite...
Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.
There you have it. Look within and around. Listen...love is an endless source."

~Excerpt from Being in Balance. Dr. Wayne Dyer~

"Give yourself the compassion you deserve for any and all past actions. Stop judging yourself harshly. All those errors and wrong actions were necessary for you to get beyond that place in your life. Be kind to yourself and eliminate any ill feelings you harbor toward yourself." - Dr. Wayne Dyer

Judgment is ugly — it hurts people. On the one hand you go on hurting them, and wounding them, and on the other hand you want their love, their respect. It is impossible. You love them, respect them, and perhaps your love and respect may help them to change many of their weaknesses, many of their failures — because love will give them new energy, a new meaning, a new strength.
