LAMENT

"Self-Pity" by D.H. Lawrence
I never saw a wild thing
sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough
without ever having felt sorry for itself.
-----------------------------------------------------

There is strength in remembering that we are lost sometimes and we are human and that sometimes we just want others to know that we are hurting.
I am glad not to be an animal but to be much more so...
...to have the gift of empathy and emotions that run to the core of my soul.
