Answer the following questions honestly by examining your own life.
- When you are blamed for an incident without fault, do you keep feeling, “I am the innocent one. This always happens to me”?

- Do you carry the sorrow that people around you do not understand your feelings?
- Do you quickly notice others’ mistakes, but fail to see your own?
- Do you feel sorrow thinking, “I stretch myself for everyone, but when the time comes for me, everyone forgets. No one comes to help!”
- Do you repeatedly remember incidents from the past or present and remain unhappy? Does that sorrow remain for a long time?

- Do you feel that others are the cause of your tears?
