Service is the rent you pay
for room upon this earth
Shirley Chisholm
Thoughts on paying the "rent" on your life
You can live without ever giving
but your life will be very small
You can live without serving others
but is that really a life at all?
You can take without ever giving
And be concerned with only you
or you can reach out a hand
and open your heart
before life's rent is due
and that's poetiquejustis
So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you,
for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.
Matthew 7:12
