Breaking the cycle
I would love to say we should love others
Just as truly and deeply as we love our children
But given the childhood of many
That would be condemning us all to hell
Better to say we should love others
As we would have chosen to be loved as children
When JC said "Suffer the little children" he did not mean literally
Of that much I am sure
For those whose experience of childhood was less than idyllic. Often marginalised by sentiment that assumes everyone's experience was perfect.
