if you turn towards the ones who need you most
it is right and true
somehow, we all aquire responsibilities
and if we accept them, we grow

this is best
not because of guilt or imposition
the weight itself is a gift
it creates our own strength and beauty

why?
because the duty will remain anyway
whether we turn towards it and blossom
or whether we try to ignore it and damage all

so much better to turn towards the challenge
to love and care for those who need us with energy
we grow
we turn beautiful from the devotion

at least, I’ve learned this by walking through fire more than once

    This one is really good Justam, I thoroughly enjoyed it! :)
    Our love must not be just words, but True Love, which shows itself in action,
    No one needs a smile more than someone who fails to give one,
    After you die...you know how to LIVE!
