Mercy, like liberty, is so often
beyond our grasp. Emotionally
we have each known despair,
an undue imbalance a time or
two. Consider those who
still may be there.

Gentle words, an extended hand,
dear benevolent being, will
forever make a difference.
We must have beginnings
to have endings. Kindness, like
gratitude, is a virtuous start.
