"Once again we face a paradox, for it appears that softening your heart and gently tending its wounds will protect you from evil. Building a fortress and defending yourself behind it will only make you more vulnerable. Healing your heart is the single most powerful thing you change do to change the world. Your own tranformation will enable you to withdraw so compeltely from evil that you contribute to it not by one word, one thought, or note breath. This healing process is like recovering your soul."
When I read this in a book of quotations it spoke to me so deeply that I had to share it.
