_she had nothing to do but to forgive herself and be happier than ever_

The biggest potential for helping us overcome shame is this: We are __hose people._ The truth is_we are the others. Most of us are one paycheck, one divorce, one drug-addicted kid, one mental health illness, one sexual assault, one drinking binge, one night of unprotected sex, or one affair away from being __hose people___he ones we don__ trust, the ones we pity, the ones we don__ let our kids play with, the ones bad things happen to, the ones we don__ want living next door.

Social justice has to do with issues such as poverty, inequality, war, racism, sexism, abortion, and lack of concern for ecology because what lies at the root at each of these is not so much someone's private sin but rather a huge, blind system that is inherently unfair.

Learn to love someone when they least deserve it, because that is when they need your love most.

You are forgiven for your happiness and your successes only if you generously consent to share them.
