The Barefoot Doctor never fails to surprise and bless with me with his quirky writing style which carries such a wonderful message. I needed this heart nourishment, so thanks Doc:

You create the story that’s going on in your fore-brain and which acts as a filter on the lens through which you perceive the world around you. The aspect of the world around you your fore-brain is mostly concerned with is other people. This is because it’s mostly through other people you procure the resources you need to survive. If the story you’re telling yourself includes the notion that other people are a threat, you see the world through a fearful filter, which isolates you and spawns a judgmental mind-frame. When you judge others as being different, better or worse than you, you automatically judge yourself. Judging yourself produces self-consciousness. Self-consciousness gives rise to inhibition. Inhibition gives rise to pretentiousness. Pretentiousness prevents spontaneity. Spontaneity puts you in the flow of natural energy, whence springs opportunity and vice-versa: when you’re in the flow you tend to act spontaneously.

Tell yourself a different story however, one in which everyone is a manifestation and expression of the divine spark of universal love, albeit in disguise, each with a gift of absolute love for you and rather than isolate yourself, you connect yourself to the source of existence informing the world. Connected to source you are in the flow and opportunities come to you, as well as which you enjoy yourself far more from moment to moment because you’re no longer living in fear.

But the thinking that can see others as divine beings in human disguise is not instigated in the fore-brain. It’s instigated in the heart. Soften your heart with the radical, compassionate, enlightened notion that everyone here including you, is a manifestation of divine love and let that issue forth from your chest as an energy, rising up to inform the thinking going on in your fore-brain.

Think lovingly from the heart in other words, and you transform the world around you and the quality of its impact on you – not just for you but for everyone.

Wish: that you transform your world so powerfully, effectively and radically for the better through love, the effect spreads ubiquitously and miracles happen for you and everyone.
