I know of no 'other' one... <br />NO ONE, <br />Who would turn their back... <br />On their worldly possessions, <br />To come to the aid of another. <br />Whether that person was a family member, <br />Friend or a lover, sister or brother. <br />And to do this is the height of sacrifice. <br />That puts to the test one's faith, courage and stamina. <br />And to experience the doing of this 'twice'... <br />Is an act that can not or will not, <br />Ever be comprehended by others to be explained. <br />The facts are in the doing to know what has been done. <br />And to hear others say what they can not do... <br />Can leave another to feel embittered, <br />By overhearing this confession of weakness.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
