Hello dear Dr. Miller,

 

Thanks for bringing the following to the notice of the list members:

 

" Generativity can't exist unless you have the sense that you can make a

difference. We've found that empathy and warmth are important, so that you

can feel the suffering of others. And it's equally important to have a

desire to give and help. But what leads the way is a healthy sense of self

that allows you to mobilize and act productively upon the world. "

 

And you have correctly chosen the subject of this mail.

 

Best wishes.
