“Watching him take a one-year cake was amazing. He bore no resemblance to the newcomer who was shaking and sitting on his hands in early meetings. He had been transformed by a new understanding and the practice of twelve new principles in his life.”
..It seems that our visual and emotional faculties in fact need constant external guidance to help them decide what they should take note of and appreciate.
— Alain de Botton
To watch people recover, to see them help others, to watch loneliness vanish, to have a host of friends - this is an experience you must not miss.
