No one feels another's grief, no one understands another's joy.
People imagine that they can reach one another. In reality they
only pass each other by.
Wouldn't it be much worse if life really were fair and all the terrible things that happen to us happen because we really deserve them?
truth that many people never understand, until it is too late, is that the more you try to avoid suffering the more you suffer because smaller and more insignificant things begin to torture you in proportion to your fear of being hurt.
Franz Schubert
J Michael Straczynski.
Thomas Merton
