Thinking of love and hate, honesty and dishonesty as extensions of myself helps shape how I build relationships and how I act. The truest honesty I show to others is reflected in how I extend honesty to myself and share it with them. Those who are not honest with themselves are also not honest with others. If I don’t forgive myself, my hatred for others also fosters negative feelings within me. I can accept others in myself just as much as I accept myself. My well-being always comes first, with others coming second. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
There are two kinds of knowledge in the world. The knowledge I can explain, and understand I know but cannot explain. To explain it to others, you must see the essence of that knowledge. The knowledge that others cannot understand means that the person describing it does not know its nature. So the secretary becomes wise. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
