I ask for understanding

If I understand you,

And you understand me,

Then we understand each other,

And all is well.

If I understand you,

And you do not understand me,

Then we misunderstand each other,

And all is not well.

If you understand me,

And I do not understand you,

Then we misunderstand each other,

And all is not well.

I want all to be well,

So what I ask for is understanding,

Understand me and why I do the things that I do,

I am also trying to understand you and why you do the things that you do.

I want all to be well,

So what I ask for is understanding,

Please understand why I do things the way I do them,

They may appear strange to you but please understand,

I am also trying to understand why you do things the way you do them,

They appear strange to me but I am trying to understand.

Understand my ways,

As I also try to understand your ways,

Do not laugh at me,

Do not rush me,

Do not ignore me,

Take my hands and guide me, slowly, if my way is not the right way,

And If I take a long time to adapt to your right way,

Then please understand.
