Reciprocal
why
is it so easy
to love, without thought
to possession, to jealousy, with
forgiveness and understanding
but so difficult
to offer any of it
to yourself?

Great question and poem!
Ty, sir. Looking forward to hearing you read again.
My thought: We expect so much more for ourselves than others. We evaluate everything we do ourselves and sometimes…sometimes explain away the things others do. We see all of our own faults and don’t usually know all of the faults of others. We give others the benefit of the doubt while we don’t cut ourselves any slack! We are all human. We don’t do everything right….give ourselves a break! We need to love who we are! We are the person we were made to be! Pour on the love!!!!!
I agree with many of your points.
And yes, we do.
I like it.
