In this episode Sr. Andrew talks about our need for affirmation and also the need to be rooted in our true identity as children of God.
 
Some quotes from this episode
:
"Affirmation is the root of all happy human existence." -Conrad Baars, Born Only Once
 
"Affirmation is not something we do but something we are...We cannot become our true selves until another person affirms us...We become our true selves when we see our goodness reflected back to us in the eyes of another person who loves us." -Dennis Linn (quoted by Dr. Bob Schuchts in Be Restored)
"Your true identity is as a child of God. This is the identity you have to accept. Once you have claimed it and settled in it, you can live in a world that gives you much joy as well as pain. You can receive the praise as well as the blame that comes to you as an opportunity for strengthening your basic identity, because the identity that makes you free is anchored beyond all human praise and blame. You belong to God, and it issei's as a child of God that you are sent into the world." -Henry Nouwen, The Inner Voice of Love
