My Sisters’ Keeper

When I look at you, I see myself.

If my eyes are unable to see you as my sister, it is because my own vision is blurred.

And if that be so, then it is I who need you.

Either because I do not understand who you are, my sister, or because I need you to help me understand who I am.

15th Past National President Lillian P Benbow

Selfish

I , me, my, mine, those are the words that do not chime. Us, we, all together. These are the words that last forever.
