On this day of your life

 

I believe God wants you to know ...

 

... that no man is hurt but by himself.

 

Diogenes said that, and he was right. Every person's

experience is created internally, by him or herself. No

one outside of you can tell you what anything means,

or whether you are "hurt" or not.

 

If you feel hurt by something or someone, it is the result

of your decision to feel that way. This may be tough to

hear, but it is true. You can change your mind at any

moment about how something is affecting you.
