Be kind to yourself like you would be to a child.

And remember others may also be having a hard time, so be nice. Thanks for sharing Harneek.

It really feels a lot. Till I found this community, I felt it is like this only for me. But now I know that I'm not alone. Thanks for this poem, Harneek.

Such compact wisdom, Harneek! Really loved that part of treating yourself like a child, and also that of being kind to another as they could be reeling from their burdens. Thank you for this - and congratulations on the versatility, you write both prose and poetry well.
