all relationships...
all relationships
of love
friendship
kindness
and it is said
even hatred
or is that merely
a reflection
of one's own
frustrations
both parties
must partake
effort
understanding
empathy
and consideration
a bond
a connection
a conduit
of emotion
sparked
to fire
as warmth
or do you
burn
the house down
dumb ass
open the window
at least
the blinds
to see
the simple
tiny
world
that builds
around you
dog
or cat
boy
or girl
or just squirrels
in the back
feeding nuts
unshelled
for they too
need
the effort
the purpose
the drive
inherent
for man
homo sapien
sapien
can be
a cruel
viciously
selfish being
inherent
or learned
the debate
rages on
education
corrupted
as is
the divide
of family
not all
will reproduce
yet
we are all
parents
of the youth
examples
guiding lights
educators
whether
you are teaching
to fish
or grill
the catch
each step
as important
as the next
and in
the complexities
of population
growth
progress
verses
demise
is key
being lazy
looses the way
lackadaisical
a luxury
lost
that must
be found
we are designed
to feed
on intellect
on emotion
love
brings reward
and pain
in loss
take hold
if what burns
inside
build
and share
that wealth
of table scraps
chef
your own design
plate
the harvest
of humble knowledge
be gentle
be kind
be loving
in all
relationships

Nicely put. Yes- just be kind. It IS the most important thing in life. Sending you my very best VB! xo
