How easily we point
to people and things
outside ourselves,
naming them culprits
that limit our lives,
while holding tight
to those relentless thoughts
about them,
those stronger chains
that more surely keep us
from being free.© 2015 Dennis Ference

Yes, sad but true.
I agree. The focus and degradation of others keeps us from liberating ourselves. Wonderful piece!
