A REPOST SLIGHTLY ADJUSTED
It makes sense that we need to function as a team. Even one less pebble can bring down the lot.
small gifts -
contributing to other's happiness?
# show me a man or woman of simple mind
people who we commonly term as slow #
point out ====>
people
of simple means<====
the poor,
the sick,
the hungry.
{direct me to someone of simple needs
a person with his ear to the ground.}
find me*
: a so called loser:
with a winning smile!
the kind you
-photograph-
then
-file-
let me find a giving person of "warm heart"
a parent who loves their child (ren)
bring them forward
~ the diseased ~
that never complain or cry'
gather
the people
too kind
to ask.
[the child]
quietly
lost inside
! round up !
the addicts,
the homeless,
the ones who accept their stock in life
that never would even think to steal or lie
(huddled)
like embryos happy to quietly die.
show me.......................families
with................adjoining hearts
one for
all and all
for one
in practice not just words.
people who give of their time to help the
.......................................................................needy
who travel to third world countries
~~~~~~make the ultimate sacrifice.
show me a person kind
a person of simple mind
show me a person considers
their acts no more than a small gift
i'll show you a person closer to God then you or i.
