Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

You Have to Have It to Give It Away

 

The Golden Rule is a two-edged sword.
If some of us treated others as we treat ourselves
we would be jailed.
Richard Paul Evans

Kindness begins 
in your heart
You cannot know how to be kind to others
If you do not know how to be kind
to yourself
You do not know how to appreciate others
If you do now know how to appreciate yourself
 
You cannot get a meal from an empty cupboard
and you cannot get compassion
from an empty heart
 Fill up your heart with self- kindness
so you have enough to share.
Until you are good to you
you will have no idea
how to be good
to others
Practice!
and that's poetiquejustis

 Love your neighbor as yourself.
Matthew 22:39
