Reciprocal


      How can there be love if there's no respect?                 

Just like there can't be respect without love. Before showing respect there should be 

love. Love is reciprocal just like hypocrisy is reciprocal. 

Give me my respect I'll give you yours, show me love and I'll do the same.

Love is a safe place, a homecoming. It's about finding the people who are 

willing to persist. Love is a growth zone.

Do we want to let go of what we love or see it grow?
