Some Purpose

To be alone is cause enough-
When you hurt inside your heart-
Life’s unmercies seem hard to tough-
At last you’ll see it’s time to start-
To make a friend who may need you-
Only then will life ring true-

Hi Jordan....a profound write on the very real human condition we all share...but few understand....the simple beauty of kindness....free to those willing to slow their chase of $$$ for a bit and see reality...good work! Jimbo
