Love is the passionate search for a truth other than your own; and once you feel it, honestly and completely, love is forever. Every act of love, every moment of the heart reaching out, is a part of the universal good: it’s a part of God, or what we call God, and it can never die.

Gregory David Roberts in _Shantaram_

“The root cause of almost all people problems is the basic communication problem – people do not listen with empathy. They listen from within their autobiography. They lack the skill and attitude of empathy. They need approval; they lack courage.” When you listen, you transform a relationship by understanding another world view, thereby changing your own.
