    This is what I live for. It's easy to be tired of something when it hasn't happened to you.

      What you say is true and I'm a white woman. What she wrote happened to me too. I've read the Tao it says avoid the extreme if to much. And if you know it must change put it in your stomach where your energy for life is. Then decide if you want to tell the world the truth. Otherwise we sell what is the most precious in life to our very souls . Take care ok?

    You are a beautiful person, and I wish for a time where this poem is no longer necessary, no longer relevant.

    1st view.
    I've never been this early for anything.

    What she is talking about happened to me . From my family and I was raped if I tell the world how many times? I'm white ok? Older now slowing down I picked up Taoism It taught me ' the way that is weighable isn't the real way'. " Your force forced isn't force" let the way of life pass see it as it is. If it does need changing within your stomach in your truest self place boundary where extremes cannot go. Then decide what you will do. Those who go with extremes die to soon and inside too. Keep your soul the most precious thing on earth and never allow others to sell it .

    I don't disagree with what she's saying, but that's not what compassion fatigue is.
