The tenderness within each human
being, is to be cherished, honoured, and treated with every possible kindness
and consideration.
Harshness is learned, toughness is added; within the hard
shell, is the kind and gentle person, the divine being, so beautiful, so full
of loving feelings.
This tender person within, does have the strengths which
are a part of being divine; determination, tenacity, the capacity to stand up
for what s/he believes in, but this tender person within does not have any
cruelty, none of the disregard for the pain of others, or the rights of others,
which the harsh outer person may have assumed, thinking, mistakenly, that they
need to be tough in order to survive in a tough world.
