True? 

We do not receive wisdom, we must discover it for ourselves, after a journey through the wilderness which no one else can make for us, which no one can spare us, for our wisdom is the point of view from which we come at last to regard the world.

 True?   (from Joplin, MO)   

Monday at the shelter I saw a young man eating who was obviously upset and weeping. I went over and talked to him in an effort to comfort him. In the course of conversation I asked what he had lost. His answer was …terrific. He said, "I have lost any selfishness that I had before. I have seen destruction and good people giving of themselves to help those who were hurt. I will never be the same as before
