Is that all there is to feeling selfish and is it that easy to just let go? I mean, where did the idea that we’re selfish begin for us? We’re not born believing we’re selfish human beings. This goes deeper than that. Really deep. And, if we feel like at our core we are truly selfish, how will we ever be able to dedicate the time, space, and energy we need to creat

How many times have we allowed what our spouse or children are going through to consume us? I can think of many times I’ve done this.
