Description Compassion

"I must", "I must", "I must",
that is the mantra of the self-believers.
They think they are social,
But they only overestimate themselves.
Control thinking replaces reason and
Constraints replace the choice of possibilities.

It is not up to the individual, but the interconnectedness:
For it is not heroes who save the world, Not individual impulses,
But a compassion that withdraws itself And that remains in balance:
Balance in the relational web of being.

"I must", "I must" - that leads astray.
"We can", "we may", perhaps also: "we should" -.
This is the only way to solve the problems of life.
