Deprivation and Disparity of Circumstance

Darfur.

Need we say more?

How can we be at peace when others are caught in such struggle and suffering?

The key to peace is not only getting what we need, but making sure others get what they need as well.

Some may argue this point, thinking they can go about their merry ways getting more than they need, and caring little about their fellow men and women. Then again, even they may agree it's hard to be at peace when looking over their shoulders in fear someone will take it away from them, or they're off on a never-ending quest to get more for themselves

Awakening souls are not like this. They feel others' pain as if it were their own. Intuitively they know that getting more than they need is alright only when everyone else has enough, and until then what they get will not taste as sweet.

Which are you?
