Distress
ever see an unmarked grave
just newly fresh in the ground
and think
might as well kick some dirt around
Why not
It is done everyday without any regard
no care
we just pass by innocent hurt needing faces
and never extend a hand
nor throw a smile in their direction
to busy with self inflicted issues
and our own distress
Tis the way of the world
we are born to fail to fulfill others
and that's okay
isn't it ?

such is "The Way of Me'Myself'(it's)Mine"
wee do All We Can to deny it.......& never give a thought
to doin thr spirit-work to transcend it.....just subscribe to some prefab dogma (any religion will do) & 'it' will all be taken care of by godmagic.. oops...I'm sorry...I must be on a blasphemy roll
anyway....
a well observed observation, dear

Most are born to fulfill others, definitely. Working for the boss every night & day comes to mind! 😊
