KINDNESS

Three things in human life are important
The first is to be kind
The second is to be kind
The third is to be kind
     —Henry James

During the heyday of Henry James
Insight into the fourth thing that’s important
Had not yet been spotlighted by psychology’s
Expanding definition of sound mental health

The fourth thing in life that’s known to be
Important, today, is a heightened awareness of
Intuitive powers guiding each of us to
Sense when to be kind to oneself

And kind to myself is what
I need to be, right now—Why?
I’m feeling anxiously overwhelmed and have
No conscious clue as to why that is true
