What matters is that you understand that others suffer,...some...
worse than u could ever do. The nature of compassion isn't coming to terms with ur own suffering and applying it to others. It's knowing that other folks around u suffer, and no matter what happens to u, no matter how lucky or unlucky u are, they keep suffering. And if u can do something about that, u do it, and u do it without whining or waving ur own... cross for the world to see. You do it because IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO.

Not The Prizes
It's NOT the honors and the prizes and the fancy outsides of life that ultimately nourish our souls. It's the knowing that we can be TRUSTED, that we NEVER HAVE TO FEAR the TRUTH, that the bedrock of our very being is FIRM.

Reputasi Vs Karakter
'Apa yang kita lakukan DIDEPAN orang membentuk REPUTASI. Itulah hal-hal yang diucapkan para tamu tentang seseorang yang akan dimakamkan. Apa yang kita lakukan yang TIDAK diketahui orang lain, itulah KARAKTER. Ini adalah apa yang diucapkan malaikat didepan Tuhan tentang kita.'
