Jean Vanier - Daily Thought - Thursday, Thursday, 23 March 2017 "Despicable" from L'Arche Canada 

Thursday, 23 March 2017 "Despicable"
Martin Luther King said that people cannot stop despising others - as well as other groups of people - unless they accept what is despicable in themselves. What is it we all despise in ourselves? Isn't it our radical poverty, our utter helplessness in many situations, our need of others, our mortality, and our capacity to hurt others?[The Paradox of Disability, page 23]
