I once read that Barbra Streisand had said:
People who don’t love people are the luckiest people in the world—suggesting a time in her professional life when disillusionment with those who had injured her spirit’s self esteem so deeply as to leave her heart feeling cut to the quick until repressed rage escaped from subconscious suppression at which time she was mocked for angrily asserting herself, and whereas a man would have been declared self respecting to the point of being ballsy, Barbra was labeled a bitch …
Though I love many people, liking people is a whole other story.
In fact, I’ve come to believe that we are meant to meet lots of people in order to truly appreciate the depths of our love, admiration and gratitude for those who prove so good natured when the going gets rough as to remain courageously kindhearted no matter what they’ve been dealt.
