How you made them feel

[cjsmith]

“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Maya Angelou.

I would be wise to learn from this.

Naturally I would like to avoid hurting others. That’s a difficult task and one I’m willing to put work into. I would also like to become wiser about my own feelings. If I will never forget the pain, it’s smart to recognize that and not wait around for the pain to vanish magically from memory, instead finding ways of going forward despite it.
