Most of us who love too much have already learned the great spiritual lesson of compassion. In fact, many of us overdo compassion. We want to do for others what they really should be doing for themselves.

We are now ready for the next great spiritual lesson--detachment.
We must learn to detach (with love and compassion) from those lives we are trying to control.

I always thought of myself as sacrificing. While I do a great deal for others...all my effort are out of control.
