no one saw. no one heard. no one loved.

wow, did i have a dream last nite.
one of the saddest dreams i've ever had.

why?
why last nite?
what was it all about?

i walked, thought about it, and the tears
ran down my face.

it's just a dream, ter.
but mygosh, it hit some deep feelings.

rather than type out this whole dream and
make everyone cry....
let me give you the bottom line....

no one saw. no one heard. no one loved.

i walked and thought and wondered what i was
sposed to do with that?

my mind went all over the place...
the bottom line that i came up with is this...

we have GOT to do that for ourselves.
we have GOT to see ourselves, hear ourselves
and love ourselves.

yes, i went to the see others, hear others,
and love others....
and yes, we've got to do that....

but the bottom line came down to ourselves.
until we can really do that for ourselves,
we can't really really do that for others....

so.
that's my thought for the day.
not a new one by any means.
but one i must revisit over and over again.

to see myself, hear myself and love myself today....

more of a challenge than we realize, i think.

Sounds like a new take on See/Hear/Speak No Evil. For if you see the beauty, hear the joy, and speak the love you feel for yourself first and then others, there's no room for anything else.

Great thoughts. Thanks for sharing.
