Jonathan J. Bonk > Quotes

“The trouble is, we are often afraid of our own emotions, or we are afraid to share or receive the emotions of others. We get embarrassed and perhaps offended by them. We try to suppress them or deny them, which is really rather silly when you think that God created our emotions just as much as every other dimension of our embodied human life.”
