Stubbornly, we wait for someone else to reach out to us

18、believing this is the only way we can forgive or rekindle a friendship or family relationship.An acquaintance of mine, whose health isnt very good, recently told me that she hasnt spoken to her son in almost three years. “Why not?” I asked. She said that she and her son had had a disagreement about

19、his wife and that she wouldnt speak to him again unless he called first. When I suggested that she be the one to reach out, she resisted initially and said, “I cant do that.

You will have the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part to create a more loving world, and certainly youll be more peaceful yourself.24. The underlined word
