Food for Thought

Every now and then, we come across a phrase, or a paragraph which arouses certain emotions in us. Perhaps the particular word, phrase, or paragraph has a special meaning which we can relate to, or it may have aroused some feelings or emotions we experienced in the past. Or it may simply be that it describes something so appropriately, or so beautifully, that we always want to remember it.

Spare a few moments to ponder on the following words of wisdom.

Opinion is really the lowest form of human knowledge. It requires no accountability, no understand. The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another’s world. It requires profound purpose larger than the self-kind of understanding. - Bill Bullard

Conflicts in relationships – having an annoying office mate or room-mate, or having chronic conflict with your spouse – is one of the surest ways to reduce your happiness. You never adapt to interpersonal conflict; it damages every day, even days when you don't see the other person but ruminate about the conflict nonetheless. - Johathan Haidt

Human nature, at its best, had always been based on a deep heroic restlessness, on wanting something – something else, something more, whether it be true love or a glimpse just beyond the horizon. It was the promise of happiness, not the attainment of it, that had driven the entire engine, the folly and glory of who we are. - Will Ferguson
