Maybe love's a mirror. Just a mirror. You can't really love completely until you can really love yourself.
I'm a slow learner. S-L-O-W.
My mom told me that I was the smartest one in class. Pretty sure I wasn't. She told me that I was more handsome than Clark Gable. Rock Hudson. I needed glasses from the third grade but I'm not blind.
Here's what I know now. All I want is to be loved. You'd think I might work harder at being more lovable. As I look around at Donald J. Trump, Katy Tur, Lionel Richie, O.J. Simpson, the Dalai Lama, I realize that that's all any of us want.
Now I lay down my armor. I love all of us. We're pretty good, aren't we?
