    Dear Alan,

    Thank you for this reply. It was very beautiful. I
    don't find it harsh at all and I agree absolutely.

    My friend recommended that I might volunteer to help
    less fortunate people - he believe it really helps one
    to connect more to people and develop a deeper love
    for mankind.

    During my meditations last night, I was reminded there
    are people like Victor Frankl, who did not judge his
    captors and managed to create peace from within. Quite
    a mighty feat considering his circumstances.

    Sincerely,
    Allen
