Michael Josephson When you've been hurt by another it’s normal to be angry and resentful, to hold a grudge. But the only way to prevent the people who hurt you from hurting you again and again every time you think about what they did to you is to let it go, bl;ock it off, refuse to revisit the pain. It's foolish to bind ourselves to bad memories.

I agree. It is normal to be angry and resentful. But a strong mind that can simply turn away, is hard to build. It takes patience. It takes will. Some people have a hard time with both- and the TIME afterwards, alone, that moves slower than sand in an hour glass is what makes it unbearable. Surround yourself with those who will protect you when your feeling emotionally hurt, enraged or down. Through all the good bonds you have in your friends, the healing of the broken ones will begin.

Michael Josephson Excessive love of money can have a powerful narcotic effect on our values. It can push us toward or keep us in unhealthy relationships and unsatisfying careers. It can lead us to undervalue the importance of relationships and work. It can make us into workaholics who neglect family and friends. And it can spawn dishono...rable conduct that pollutes our souls and makes us unworthy despite our net worth

Michael Josephson Nothing great can be accomplished without idealism, the disposition to see how things ought to be and the commitment to do whatever one can to make the ideal the reality. - Michael Josephson

Michael Josephson Still decompressing from fabulous evening receiving UCLA Alumnus of Year Award. Thanks to all who send nice notes. The best part by far was seeing how proud of me my family and friends were. Maybe that's shallow but the pride of those I care about is the most coveted form of award I know.

Michael Josephson If you follow my commentaries you've heard me talk often on the dangers of excess partisanship. Please look at this video and comment. Send it to others. Whether you lean left or right, this is scary an unAmerican.

Craig is almost dead on, but I would state it as this: This sort of thing does certainly seem to be resonating with those having no more than a private school third grade education.

Michael Josephson Success is having to worry about every damn thing in the world, except money - Johnny Cash. Lack of money can be a problem, but having it won't make much difference if you don't have a solid foundation for happiness -- good relationships, self-respect and worthy work.
