Hi, as I have already explained to Miss Hepburn, I was actually - owing to a degree of exasperation - "contradicting" my own long held insight/opinion - which basically agrees with what you say. i.e. Any genuine compassion/empathy for others will be
a "by-product" of wisdom.
As far as "teachers" are concerned, I seek to learn from each and every moment. I'm not waiting for anyone "to appear when I'm ready". (Which you in effect say, so once again we agree)
