Cues are intuitively understood. Most of what we feel is unexamined and articulated. Cultural norms are unwittingly absorbed. We learn when to speak and when to stay silent. - Pam MacRae (Ch. 2).","author":"Rosalie De Rosset","tags":["childhood","children","culture","development","growth","internalizing","intuitive-development","silence","speaking-out"],"id":234693,"author_id":"Rosalie+De+Rosset"},{"text":"Wisdom is to internalise the experiences of other things, of everything!

They falsely believe if they forgive they are letting their enemy believe they are a doormat. What they don’t understand is hatred can’t be isolated or turned off. It manifests in their health, choices and belief systems. Their values and religious beliefs make adjustments to justify their negative emotions. Not unlike malware infesting a hard drive, their spirit slowly becomes corrupted and they make choices that don’t make logical sense to others. Hatred left unaddressed will crash a person’s spirit. The only thing he or she can do is to reboot, by fixing him or herself, not others. This might require installing a firewall of boundaries or parental controls on their emotions. Regardless of the approach, we are all connected on this 'network of life' and each of us is responsible for cleaning up our spiritual registry.","author":"Shannon L.
