Compassion hurts. When you feel connected to everything, you also feel responsible for everything. And you cannot turn away. Your destiny is bound with the destinies of others. You must either learn to carry the Universe or be crushed by it. You must grow strong enough to love the world, yet empty enough to sit down at the same table with its worst horrors.

Via Quote Book:
Barely even friends, then somebody bends unexpectedly.
But now we’re back to barely even friends.
So I’ve asked for “advice.”
And they’ve told me what I’ve always thought of: to break up with you. Or at least cool off. What do I do? I don’t want to initiate because I know you’ll end up hating me and I can’t live with that. But I can’t live like this either.
We’re barely even friends, for goodness’ sakes!
How do I go on? I’m just waiting for you to initiate it but I don’t know if you ever will.
It feels like you don’t even care for me anymore.
Harnessing the Power of Feedback Loops
The premise of a feedback loop is simple: Provide people with information about their actions in real time, then give them a chance to change those actions, pushing them toward better behaviors.
