Encourage and Uplift
When you take a hand from the ditch
Pulling someone to a sitting position
it is a start
But you should go a bit farther
Listen to their truth
Their story
Their life tale
Encourage and uplift them
Build them up
Help them feel human
Do not stop pulling
until they are in a standing position
Tall and proud of themselves
Better yet, enthuse and infuse them
Until they begin to fly in the air like an eagle
So now they can pull others out of ditches
