How much does it cost to care about all of the wrongs in the world? What part of me do I give up for wanting to do more, give better, achieve equality for all? The oceans, the suffering of children, animals, human rights violations, sickness, corruption, poisons in our environment, where do I start, and where do I stop? I have one voice, one mind, one will. I am not famous, rich, influential, no supernatural powers, I am just me. Where do I place my oneness, which injustice is most unjust?Â
When you see me sharing my only oneness, all that I can give, don't tread on my pure hearted attempt. Don't tell me that I am not doing my fair share, that I am not bleeding enough for a cause. Instead try to accept the good will, and the intent. Be grateful for me, for all like me. Welcome us, our collective oneness. For the more me's there are, the less unjust there will be.
