I digress

First opinions are often worth a second look. A few days ago, I posted the intro to a blog that seemed to me (at that time), to be somewhat bitter and resentful of love. The more I have read, the more that I am of the mind that they are really not very much different than myself, and the rest of us (I'm sure that they are glad to hear that), that may have been wounded in love. I believe that what we are doing is licking our wounds (yuck!). We all do that in our own way, and often the taste is bitter. I applaude their dialog, as truly

Before we can love another...
Before we can give it away...
We must truly love ourselves,
and be able to listen "calmly"
to what the heart doth say.
