Take Wisdom Where You Find It - Rambam
This poem is from the book Walking Down The Street, by Malky Farkas Treitel, given to me by a dear friend.
d
The Silent Ones
h
Protect me
from those who
walked away
hurt
from something
I said or
didn't say,
carrying a grudge
for some real
or imagined pain
which I inflicted or
just didn't help
avoid.
k
Protect me
from those
who feel
deeply
but don't
communicate.

"Protect me" from them?! How about "Help me reach them?" Or "help me be kind to them?"
good point.
as i read this book, it makes me want to put mine out asap, and a piece of me wishes i could have edited/spoken with the author of this book.
