Look around us

Sometimes we

give in our pain

and forget to

look around us.

And, if we just

pay attention

to anything beyond

our own lives,

we'll see

there are

other people who cry.

There are other lives

who need some help.

And we go on,

and we go on,

forgetting we should

look around us.

Life can't be

only our sorrow,

only our goals,

only our pleasure.

Life must be

love and mutual help,

life can be

more than selfshiness.

We can change our minds,

improve our lives

and go beyond ourselves

if we look around us.
