Throwing Stones

-Poetic Thursday

It was Jesus who said, cast the first stone if you are without sin.

It was I who said, sorry for judging you, not even knowing where you have been.

Are you the one, who speaks so loudly.

Placing blame, pointing fingers, calling out others so proudly.

There is a caution in the wind, to keep you from throwing so many rocks,

That significance you feel, feeds the ego, but keeps your soul in a cold and lonely box.

The next time there’s an urge, to speak up and condemn,

Listen to your heart, and understand more fully that you are them.

These hurtful words, that spill from your mouth,

Are at their core, a reflection, of how you see yourself.

So throw as you will, as many stones as you can bear,

Just know the pain you create, is the suffering you will wear.

Did you find genuine value within this post? If you did, then most likely you know someone else who will as well. I invite you to share the goodness!
