Suffering

"When another person makes you suffer, it is because they suffer deeply within themselves, and that suffering is spilling over.  The do not need punishment; they need help.  That is the message they are sending you." ~Thich Nhat Hanh~

"People have a hard time letting go of their suffering.  Out of fear of the unknown they prefer suffering that is familiar." ~Thich Nhat Hanh~

"No one saves us but ourselves.  No one can and no one may.  We ourselves must walk the path." ~Buddha~
