Truism

When I tell you to build dams over rivers and seas,
To build bridges betwixt beings and make existence ease;
You laugh at me and politicize each one of my fights,
I don't quit; I don't accept failures; I am at my heights;
I am Gandhi, Nehru, Mandela, Luther, Lincoln, oh!
Who, on the paths of Jesus, Allah, and Ram always go..!!!

“Jesus, Allah, Ram” ~ well said, Chris. God is one but man has divided Him in small compartments of different belief systems. Warmest congratulations on your top win!
