Circle - part 2
Can you honestly say that you're not offended
when you're the one that has been up-ended,
misplaced,
turned from YOUR righteous place?
Do you cheer?
or do you jeer?
Now is a great time to remember and to put to use
how we treat others and ourselves
determines whether we receive abuse,
or the love,
appreciation, recognition and respect that we crave for self.
For all of life is a circle:
What we give to others
most assuredly,
returns.
