I hear you calling
I see your face
yet
I don’t understand
all you’ve done
what
has been your choice.
If I answer
if
I smile to your face
does that mean
I’m part of
complicit with
what you’ve done
what
has been your choice?

Understanding how others think is quite a challenge…. one of the hardest ones in life.

Yes, but really is it any of business?
I think how we react now THAT is our business!

I don’t know, Patrice. I think understanding others might be key to really understanding ourselves, but I’m a long way from either.

Me either!
Keep hearing what we don’t like in others is what we don’t like in ourselves – what do you think? 🤔

Oh, I do believe that, to a large extent… the idea being that self-criticism is often directed outward at others…. especially when parenting. That would explain an awful lot. 😀
