Compassion!
When we see ourselves,
In the weaknesses of fellow man,
We unlock a floodgate of compassion,
Which aids our passion to reach out.
Many times the things we condemn,
Are the things we do,
So when we judge another,
We judge ourselves.
Arrrh but that core human instinct,
To be better than another,
Can be a dark cloud to common sense and reason,
Seek to be better than former self,
That can be as former as one second ago.
In order to feel like a saint,
We are quick to demonize,
It is alright to firmly but lovingly say its wrong,
Tough love if you will,
But neither judge nor condemn,
That's God's prerogative,
Only He knows enough to Judge.
