Kindness

KINDNESS


Kindness,
Sister of love
Helper of compassion
Companion of Goodness
Rescuer of the needy,

You who:
The hungry feed
The homeless shelter
The sick nurse
The lonely befriend 
The bereaved console,

I IMPLORE YOU  

Make our hearts  
Your earthly domain 
AND
Transform us
Into 
Charitable GIANTS 
For our brothers’ 
SAKE!

Another good one. If you don't feel love, you can't be kind and if you are not kind - you can not love. We should all care for the less fortunate. Thanks for sharing. Lucilla
