SIDEWAYS

 

Sometimes we figure it out

that the best way to approach

another is sideways – that is,

through the back or side door.

We know – just know – this is

the best way to go – to get to

where we want to go – but

going frontways – face to face –

just doesn’t work. Worse:

it’s the worse way to go.

DESCRIBE WHAT LOVE  IS?

Tell me what love is like?

It's listening.

It's thinking of the other.

It's the cross.

It's putting the others first.

It's caring.

It's forgiving.

It's not taking the seat you want.

It's not always being frustrated.

It's not knowing and always going bonkers about that.

It's giving the uninteresting a call now and then.

It's knowing there is more than me.
