feed or eat

Post by mangodog » February 24th, 2015, 5:59 pm

I think it’s
equally easy
to be kind or mean

it’s just that
over time

one feeds you

the
other
eats
you . . .

Well said, I agree wholeheartedly. An unkindness does terrible things to the one who gives it.

Some will live to eat, and some will eat to live. It is always best to not overfeed the beast inside. :angel:
Very much enjoyed!

There is a beautiful mystery here, because I can think of instances where kindness both feeds and eats on me... I suppose the emphasis here is placed on "over time".

Thanks for sharing and congratulations on the spotlight!
