The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.
Quote by Thomas Merton
REFLECTION:
- Do you allow others to be themselves?
- Or do you want others to be like you? Do you think you have the answers… know what is best for others and expect that of them?
- How can you allow others to be who they are?
