"Compassion"

© 2001, Rita Loyd
 

  I open my heart to connect
with the suffering of others.
As my heart expands from this connection,
a desire to help grows strong.
From this desire to help,
comes the searching inside,
how can I make a difference?
How can I make this world a better place?
How can I contribute to peace
and to environmental preservation?
The answer lies within myself.
Within my own passion and talents.
And it lies within the answers to my questions -
What do I do best? What do I care most about?
