POEMS ABOUT COMPASSION > I Added One More Person

I ADDED ONE MORE PERSON

​My purpose                is and always
was the same: to          serve Humanity.  
And even though I consider that purpose the
most fulfilling, after many years, I started feeling
I was missing something. My purpose is still the same.
However, I added something. I added one more person
to that list of Humanity; a person who somehow seemed
invisible and unimportant to me before. A person who was
constantly ignored during my missions.  Now  I  added
me         
to the list of Humanity, as an equal. And somehow,
even though I added one more person to those I
serve, my work load seemed to lighten up
quite a bit. It’s a sense of peace, a
sense of fairness, a sense of
absolute fulfillment,
a sense of real,
global unity,
at last.
