“Everyone in our lives is a mirror of who we are,

what we think and what we do.  They reflect

back to us our secret thoughts and feelings.

More important, they come to show us what

we need to learn. People do not come into

our lives to hurt us.  The people in our lives

love us so much, they come to show us what 

we must do to grow beyond the thoughts

and emotions that cause us pain.  The best

thing we can do for ourselves and the

people in our lives is to love them un-

conditionally, forgive them without reservation

and to accept them exactly as they are.

What we always must remember about

others is whatever we give to them or 

do to them will come back to us tenfold.”
