What We Give We Receive

We only see in others what we want to see And what I dislike in others I dislike in me Such pearls of wisdom from the past we recall But judge yourself as you would judge others if you judge at all If you only look for flaws in others then flaws you will find And in so doing to your own faults you do become blind The one you disrespect to you respect won't pay What we give we receive life is always this way Big Brother's disciples as we know are not rare But they don't have wisdom with others to share Suppose they can't help it their lack of insight They feel that to judge is their natural right We never stop learning the wise one did say And in life there are lessons for us every day.
