The others size, attitude, and reason for arrest would determine the amount of force that I might have been required to use.<br /><br />There will always be other who are more intelligent/less intelligent, more/less attractive etc., then us so why compare. The Creator made each of us as unique beings, with our own life purpose<br /><br />From one of my favorite philosophers and mystics,<br /><br />Lao Tzu says: “Accept yourself. Non-acceptance is the root of all the trouble.”<br />"None of us accept ourselves. The more a person doesn’t accept himself, the greater a mahatma he looks to others to be. We are our greatest enemy. If we had our way, we would cut ourselves to pieces in order to remove what was unacceptable."<br />~ Osho<br /><br />Cheers AndyAndy Laighleishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01575533602805369146noreply@blogger.com
