Some of my personal favorites expressed here.
Especially poingnant now.
"And the leaves that are green turn to brown."
Yes, even if others disagree! These are *my* feelings. They are worthy.
I have enough on my hands being responsible for my own.
Others can be responsible for their own behaviors, actions, feelings and problems that they bring on themselves. It's not mine to solve for them.
10. But, I won't hold a resentment when it isn't forthcoming. I'll simply learn.
Lately, that seems to be more often.
No need to reiterate here. It's self evident. 
Beautiful post full of truth for all.
Thanks for posting!
Shalom!
