No Selfishness

My ego is never enlightened to my own selfishness I think that is a sense of meaninglessness Now days to help someone it is very imperative, That for God I use my talents to be creative To bring peace I want to sing this song, spreading joy so sing along I want to dance to give homeless children a chance To spread the gospel I want to preach, I’m God’s disciple; lost souls I want to save and reach I love to write to motivate and inspire, to help spark your spirit inside on fire In this violent and cruel world we shall overcome With the help of others this too shall be done I will walk the path of my choosing, and if any other (soul) shall join me I will share my allotted portion of love that this universe has granted me, but Jesus made me free The filth and hate in our hearts is constantly tearing us apart; Our selfishness and pettiness has made us blind Have we all lost our minds? Sometimes our own corruption is our own understanding In our lives when we are feeling pain that is more then we can bear, I thank God for keep me standing “What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world, is and remains immortal.” Albert Pine
