I laugh at myself and see my own faults...
...more than that of others! Humor shouldn't require victims. If so, then it isn't humor, it's what's known as a cheap shot!

Right on my darlin' Sweetest Purple...write on! This says it all, your well written reasons and account for being careful of humanity ~ we're all fragile, no matter

Agreed, Jenn!
The only one who should make fun of somebody is themselves. I do that fairly often, self-deprecating humor being something I caught from the Swedish side of my family.

Great poem and much needed message. So many times we hurt others thoughtlessly, It is not worth a laugh to produce a tear dear Mermaid, As always well written and lovely. Take care of you
