I work on having the will to
allow those that I love be who and what they are and not try to twist and turn
them into something that comes close to my own image and likeness. The reason I
work on this aspect of my life is that I have learned that if we try to mold those
we love into mini-versions of our self, reflections of us, we don’t really love
the person rather we love, as Thomas Merton said “Only their potential likeness to ourselves” which
belittles and dehumanizes them and us.
Dance happy and with grace and style because life is short!
