"If it were true that everyone you meet is YOU in another body, how would you treat them?"
Boy, I really wish I could get some comments on this one. It seems at first like a simple question with a simple answer, but is it? My first quick answer to this one is "I would kick their ass!" But that is me and most times I really don't like myself very well. The experts (and my therapist) tell me that I really should not feel that way but that self-loathing keeps me in line at times. All the inspirational material advises me that I must love myself before I can love another. Well...darn it, I guess based on my answer to this question -that it TRUE.
Let me attempt to answer the above question again, the way my therapist would want me to. If everyone I met was me in another body, I would smile and say "I love you...and you are great!" STOP.... No, I can't take it!! I am beginning to sound like Stuart Smalley! Nope...think I will stick with my first answer!
