Learn to know and love yourself
with all your imperfections,
to let go with gentleness,
rather than to extricate
with violence,
those doings that pain
self and neighbor,
to see in all that is present
the Presence of God,
and thus be transformed
for a troubled world
into a genuine prophet of peace.Ā© 2017 Dennis Ference

That gives me much joy. š
