Don’t Help!

Your dramas are not mine
nor do I need to solve
your problems or needs.
Do good, help others
our religions teach
yet there are times
when we need to let
others work through
their own life experiences.

I need to consider
carefully my need to rescue,
to go from one drama
to another–my own and others.

There is a balance needed
in this issue of helping…
discernment mixed with
compassion is the key.
