Golden Rule

by Susan Cowger 2 Comments

I have only one word of advice:

Do to others as you would have them do to you.

That’s it. That is the only flashlight you get.

Keep it in front of you. It will go well with you.

Everytime.

(it’s only cliche until you do it…)

Forgive sweat and blood
Skin covers bone with feeling
Petals fall open

    A FLASHLIGHT! Thanks what it is.

    I never noticed that the Golden Rule doesn't address what others actually do to you. Maybe part of the magic is that it turns your eyes away from yourself.
