What if
we bore fruit,
instead of bombs?
Lovejoypeacepatiencekindnessgoodnessfaithfullnessgentleness,

Stopped comparing apples,
oranges and just

shared our souls?

YES!
What a great sentiment – and I love the photo, too.
Awesome. From the title through to the end, it’s perfect. How appropriate to emphasize “self control” the way that you did. And the sneaky way you made “love self” appear. You also created the possibility of “love-self control” by leaving out the hyphen in “self-control.” It does take extreme effort to really love oneself.
Indeed, what if? I love this!!
