Own a perfectly disgusting

On one of those lovely sunny evenings in the Northwest, a friend and enjoy dinner before Dashing to the concert together. Although I knew Nancy for a couple of years, I was only familiar with the roles of teacher and PhD student in exotic European travel program. As we munched on crusty bread, vegetables and raw pesto sauce, she talked about her children and two decade long marriage, which was now end in divorce.
Put himself and said: "you have your own completely terrible thing."
Words resonated with Nancy and she smiled when she repeated.
"These events, which we are living through are really horrible," he said, citing difficult divorce, where people can go seemingly normal as soon as the money is on the table, or in any other situation, seeing your home destroyed by fire.
"A colleague at work, as one of his family barely escaped a fire in Los Angeles a few years ago. Although his wife and sons of the wild waves of the fire, everything they owned was trapped in the flames. He shared a wall of fire as impeding the pic on the street, and believe me, it was horrible. "
Extreme provocation
We can provide a myriad of horrific events: a devastating war in the Gulf, Sudan, Vietnam, World War II-and within each of these events are the thousands of separate incidents, which are psychologically disturbing and destructive, physically, emotionally and spiritually. We have all the recent incidents: tsunami, Gulf oil spill, Japan and the Fukushima nuclear accident still is calling for the cessation of radioactivity on our Earth and the sky. Then, add to the list of personal traumas which our lives of illness such as cancer, heart conditions and learning disabilities such as autism.
These are extreme personal provocation, and we experience one or more during our lives our own absolutely terrible thing, which is tailored for us. Each call makes it easy for our spiritual growth, but our heart, and most of all, it enables us to be more compassionate for other live as we do the gift of unity is closer within reach.
Understanding of and to understand
When we think that all have their own terrible confrontation and to open with a softer heart, this is one way we practice Steven Covey fifth habit of highly effective people says:

Search first to understand, then means.

Steven often says that the success principles, teach all day fifth.
Understanding of others, and it is clear, is one of the Cardinal of human needs. The cornerstone of the five human values of peace, love, true, correct action and non-violence. It's intimate need to be recognized, and "I am, I exist, I count" is desire, which combines our core with the universe.
So take your own horrible horrible thing, and I know that this will lead you to a more compassionate and loving you.
