To those who believe that they are, somehow, better than others, ought to take a good look at themselves in the mirror!

Not one soul can ever truly know to what extent any of their actions (even the tiniest of lies) has actually caused by what I will call "the ripple effect."

We are ALL human beings and we are ALL entitled to empathy, sympathy and forgiveness.

I cannot imagine that ANY ONE OF US who claims to have a mental illnes can say that we have not caused devastation to other peoples' lives. We are all here because of pain we cause, either to ourselves and to OTHERS!!!

If you are one of these people who has never hurt another, then please, cast that first stone!!

As we all know, behaviours are passed down from father to son; mother to daughter; brother to sister; sister to sister; child to child; neighbour to neighbour. You get the picture, here.

I am so tired of being judged by this world for iniquities that can be found in every single person that lives on the face of the earth, no matter how repugnant.

As far as I know, there has only been one PERFECT human being on this planet - EVER. And if this is not your belief, fine, because it only means that we are all inadequate to live if we truly knew the effects of every decision we have ever made in our entire life.
