Inspiration from Carl Jung

I just found this poem, in Dan Millman's little gem of a book, The Laws of Spirit: A Tale of Transformation.

That I feed the hungry,
forgive an insult, and love my enemy--
these are great virtues.
But what if I should discover
that the poorest of the beggars
and most impudent of offenders
are all within me,
and that I stand in need
of the alms of my own kindness;
that I myself am the enemy
who must be loved-
what then?
-- C.G. Jung

Wishing you a day full of compassion for yourself and others!

Namaste!
