Deeper and deeper and deeper.

It's more important to understand myself than it is to understand other people. Or so I suspect. Because if I don't understand myself, it's gonna be impossible to understand others. I can't get inside other people. But I can get inside myself. Then I can begin to extrapolate. I can then listen attentively to other people and compare our inner experiences. And that may lead to some degree of understanding. Even to a loving relationship. Yes, to true love. Love that becomes far more than physical. Becomes soulful. But for that to happen, one must probe one's self. Deeper and deeper and deeper. --Jim Broede
