Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

What are you waiting for?

They also serve 
who only stand
 and wait
John Milton




It is 6 o'clock and you just got off  work
you want to go home 
and put your feet up
but you wait in a grocery store line
to bring home dinner
 You are a hero

It is Saturday
your friends are at the spa
and you wait on the sidelines at the soccer field
to cheer your kids on
you are a hero

                           There is a golf game somewhere waiting for you
                         but you are spending the morning with your son
 you are a hero

Carl Sagan said:
"Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known"

if you have learned to give up a bit of time
to make life a little better for others

you have already found 
that 'something incredible"

you are a hero
and that's poetiquejustis

Let each of you look not only to his own interests,
 but also to the interests of others.
