Dear soopy:

You read as a logical, sensible woman who is aware of what is going on. But there is more awareness needed.

You wrote: “somewhere in his twisted mind there is a soul there, and he puts a mature front but I know in his head he is a child.”

(1) You are aware that there is an innocent child inside him and it is true. He was born an innocent child and that child is still in him. You get glimpses of that child in his eyes, in his voice, in his touch. Good awareness.

(2) More awareness: every single person in the world was born an innocent child and that child is still in them. This is true to war criminals responsible for the deaths of thousands to millions of people. It is true to serial murderers who have committed the most cruel acts imaginable.

If you meditate on 1 and 2, what are your thoughts and feelings?
