Solution

Even if we cannot be the solution,
let us at least be the solace.
Even if we cannot help, let us not harm.
Even if we cannot solve the problem,
let us not cause the problem.
Even if we cannot be the accelerant,
let us not be a retardant.

If you cannot be the pain balm
to the battered souls,
rather than being the cause of headache,
the world will come in search of you.

With compassion in words and actions,
help every man to find his solutions

and this world will belong to you.
