Backwards.
It is backwards. How we strive to succeed pushing ahead of others stepping on their heads cheering as they bleed. It is so backwards. How we think this puts us ahead jerking down those before us tripping those in our wake scavenging the same old carcasses instead of cultivating original successes ahead. It is backwards. How we tear and rip each other down. We are in the same race. We cover the common ground. Do you see? Why do we act like chickens pecking each other nearly to death? Do we not see that today it is him or her, Tomorrow it is you and me? And yet I see a flower, a photo. I hear a song. I see what people can do. I view a smile, a giggle, a deep belly laugh. I hear encouraging things people can say. It is backwards, I guess, by design. The sweet and loving people are often quiet. Many are so quiet…and kind. Doing nice things all day long. Not ringing a bell for themselves, Not commanding a throng. Not bragging or swagging Just being regular. Telling the truth. Being who they are. Doing what they do. Sharing what they are. Making life more abundant for me and you. Helping and sharing With no thought or hope of gaining Because they have to? Because they have to…. Because to not would be to them very wrong. Helping and sharing because that is just what they do. And they are rewarded. Mostly not from those with which they help or share. But with both Hands overwhelming rewarded. Their cups running over and over and over an ocean of blessing to spare.
