The Lord said, I show kindness to thousands.
Who love me and keep my commandments.
They come now , millions from many lands.
Bringing such great enchantments.
I was thinking of some event I didn’t want to go to.
But what’s important is not me, but others.
Not what I want to go to.
But what gives pleasure to others.
Just a little kindness.
However tiring.
Is more than selfish blindness.
But it takes some trying.
Such good intentions do not last .
Just like the last time I tried to fast.
……..
Show kindness to all
Love all of my commandments
But it’s difficult

See Exodus 20: 1-17
