October 10 - World Mental Health Day and a beautiful text from my early years during my career:
Every demand is a demand of love.
Each one calls attention as he can.
As he knows.
As he learned.
The one who screams, is making noise so that the pain is not noticed. He makes a rumble flower to disguise that he has a fault that he cannot fill.
The other who often comes with a complain, who does not even know what he wants, is putting his eyes in front of you so that you look at him and caress his head.
It doesn't matter how he asks for it, it matters that he is asking for it.
And deep down, every demand is a demand for love.
There are times, that with a hug, we all save ourselves.
