We hurt people because we hurt.
We can apologize but that doesn't always take away the damage, does it? And it doesn't stop us from hurting again. Until we realize this truth, we will continue to hurt people. Most of us aren't bad people. We're just hurting.
Today, sit quietly for a moment, and isolate the specific pain that causes any suffering you inflict on others.
"Responsibility must be taken for events and we must decide to radically prevent their recurrence by destroying and canceling the desire that caused them. The moment we make this decision, we in fact attain an alternate level of consciousness." - Rav Berg
