POEM (The Joy of Unselfish Giving)

 
 
 
 
The Joy of
Unselfish Giving
 
 
Time is not measured
by the years that you live,
But by the deeds that you do
and the joy that you give--
 
And each day as it comes,
brings a chance to each one,
To love to the fullest,
leaving nothing undone.
 
That would brighten the life
or lighten the load,
Of some weary traveler
lost on Life's Road ---
 
So what does it matter
how long we may live,
If as long as we live
we unselfishly give.
 
---Helen Steiner Rice
