May oppressed people and those who oppress them, free each other.May those who are handicapped, and those who think they are not, help each other.May those who need someone to listen touch the hearts of those who are too busy.May the homeless bring joy to those who open their doors reluctantly.May the lonely heal those who think they are self-sufficient.May the poor melt the hearts of the rich.May seekers for truth give life to those who are satisfied that they have found it.May the dying who do not wish to die be comforted by those who find it hard to live.May the unloved be allowed to unlock the hearts of those who cannot love.May prisoners find true freedom and liberate others from fear.May those who sleep on the streets share their gentleness with those who cannot understand them.May
