Irina A. (EII) - A need for connection, Correcting bad relationships, All people are inherently good

Relationships and feelings—this, I believe, is the most important thing in life. Any person deserves respect simply because they are a human being. I hate gossip. When relationships turn bad, it makes me feel terrible—like a nightmare.

I cannot work in an atmosphere of bad relationships. I will try to improve them—I will show by example what relationships should be like, how one should behave. I believe that even if a person does not do very good things, there is still a piece of goodness in them.

In essence, people cannot truly be bad. You just have to dig down to the good and show it to them...

In relationships I long for kindness, attention, and tenderness.
