Thinking a person is special and trusting that person and committing yourself to that person are two steps for real love, as covered in Dr. Willard Gaylin's book, "Rediscovering Love". One can not go through life in an armored car but rather Gaylin talks about taking risks. One of Gaylin's last points, if you find yourself in a loveless life, to compensate, give love away.

Dr. Willard Gayelin talks about and reads from his book "In the Service of Their Country." He talks about the imprisonment of conscientious objectors who did not want to participate in the war.

Dr. Williard Gaylen, a physician and professor of psychiatry at Columbia, discusses how feelings define humanity. He explains that there are no "bad" or "good" feelings, because even anxiety and guilt are strictly human emotions. Dr. Gaylen also talks about how envy is the only useless feeling. Two recordings of people talking about pride and guilt are also played.

Dr. Robert Coles' book, "The Call of Service; A Witness to Idealism" came as a result of watching of his mother work tirelessly in soup kitchens, helping the less fortunate. Through his stories and experiences, Coles lets his audience know that one must put himself in others' shoes to truly help others.
