"respect or esteem that has been earned."
Contemplate that for a moment.

If anything, it is of even more moment to honor yourself.
Those who are successful and happy earn their own
self-respect and self-esteem.

There is a secret wisdom-of-the-ages
that holds the key to breaking our
cycle of self-imposed suffering.

God has not failed, died, or gone on vacation.

Somewhere along the way, someone got the idea that
life was "supposed" to be "fair,"
and all the trouble started -
expectation, disappointment, resentment, anger -
a whole cycle of suffering that began
with the belief that life is "supposed" to be "fair."
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
