Most of those people, if you know about them, were not people you would relate to easely, some were strikingly out of balance, interesting folks, I agree, but would not make the path to compassion easy...Yes, thaks for reminding a truism, heathiness is also subjective, what I meant by it is people that make you feel good and that you want to love.
