Unto Others


The only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve. ~ Albert Schweitzer
When I remain in me, centered in me, thinking of me
I fail to be of any benefit to anybody, especially me.
When I serve you, long to model recovery for you,
wish well for you, pray you receive all those things
I would have sought for myself had I been focused there...
When I wish well for you for your sake, not for my own,
not for your respect, your love, your admiration,
your kindness in return to me, when I serve you
I find all those things I would have coveted for me
have come to me, the manifestation of my service to you.
