Jon, I love your work so much. I save it in my inbox to really savor so that I don't rush or miss anything. First of all, I didn't know Yeek and was completely mesmerized by his voice, his lyrics, and his movements in that video. The kid of the bike made it all the better!!!! I will be listening to more. of him and feel so lucky to know his work now. Wow.

And this truth you penned is a powerful one lost on too many: "Because one thing I’ve realized is that when we’re kinder to ourselves, giving love becomes easier. So, appreciation for ourselves truly is one of the most generous things we could do for everyone else." Yes.

So many wisdom practices focus on this. When we can love ourselves and find peace within, we can be of most service to others. Suffering begets suffering. Peace begets peace.

Love where your writing takes me again and again. <3
