people of any age need nurture when life's demands are heavy, in order to keep in touch with our selves.
in some jobs, in many challenging circumstances, it's easy to feel your self disappear. i have found that there isn't much as wonderful in being a human as having a self.
more than anything, as a parent, i want for my children a sense of self-completion that extends to care for others' selves.
just think if we all had that...what a difference it would make in the world.
