“It is difficult to be patient with others if lam not really thinking of how I might be helpful to them. To be respected, I must give respect.”
Diversity of character is due to the unequal time given to values. Only through each other will we see the importance of the qualities we lack and our unfinished soul’s potential.
— Shannon L. Alder
…that his whole deportment shouts at the new prospect that he is a man with a real answer, that he has no attitude of Holier Than Thou, nothing whatever except the sincere desire to be helpful; .. these are the conditions we have found most effective.
