it's easy to say
not so easy to do
advice, everybody has one
but the recipe is a secret
nobody knows where it is
free your mind
i imagine, it will need
2 cups of forgiveness
2 cups of compassion
1 cup of kindness
1 teaspoon of joy
mix everything together
bake for 1/2 hr at 375 F
oh, i forgot the most
important, the baking powder
for this recipe it'd be self-love
without it
no mind will be free

Wow, what a great comparison! Thanks for explaining why forgiveness, compassion, kindness, and joy, along with self-love, are important—like ingredients in a sweet recipe. I really like how you made me think about it in a cheerful way. Thanks for that! 🙂

I love your idea, baking it at bedtime! I’ll try it too, if not beautiful dreams, at least a good night sleep!

I thought I smelled it for a moment, just before dozing off. It had a sweet citrus aroma, like orange cake or lemon bars.
