thou shalt love

One last quote from 'Miricle on the River Kwai'

'With the despairing cry of 'I must be loved!' they would return periodically from the psychiatrist's couch to seek new partners and new problems. All the while their ears remain closed to the divine imperative, 'Thou shalt love!'.

We need to shift our focus from what we get- to what we can give.


Now reading a book called "the City of Joy" that follows 2 stories of a rural family who had to move to the slums of Calcutta in India and a Catholic priets who chose to live in the slums of Calcutta. Very interesting, sad, heart warming and beautiful all at the same time.
