Can you

Are you able
To forgive
Those responsible

Even as you
Embrace
The wretched

Can you find
Within you
The strength
To extend
Compassion
In
Unfashionable
Directions?

Can you
Labor tirelessly
To fix
To heal
To mend
To soothe --
And to forgive?

Do you
Find time
To work
Without hope
Of reward,
Wracking
Your own
Bones
So that others
May at last
Rest theirs?

What is your cause?
What is your source?

Know that, and pursue it:
There is time for little else.

When moved in the direction
Of Source,
Vast stores of energy are freed
For use --
There is no time for blame,
For there is no hint of blame
In healing work.

Move toward healing:
As you heal others,
You heal yourself.
As you lift up others,
So shall you be lifted.

The rest is
One
Long
Infomercial.
