Hurting Quote by Geraldine Vermaak
“You are only hurting yourself if you are being rude and unkind; it might not come back to you immediately or in the way you dished it out; but when it boomerangs back at you, it surely comes back in it's own different shape and sizes. Treat people the way you want to be treated. This is the only most important lesson in life, primarily to that; loving God, all the rest is just commentary.”
