Dear Ferry Meed

It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences. - Audre Lorde Love is the power to see similarity in the dissimilar. - Theodor Adorno You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view. - Harper Lee Share our similarities, celebrate our differences. - M. Scott Peck As we grow as unique persons, we learn to respect the uniqueness of others. - Robert H. Schuller The essence of compassion is accepting others as unique individuals, without believing that they are less good for not being carbon copies of ourselves. - Jonathan Lockwood Huie When we have expectations (demands), we think we know how people SHOULD behave, and we can have no compassion. Only after we accept that another person's uniquely "right" path does not follow our own preconceptions, we can be compassionate.
