Mudita - Noaa Rienecker
Life is about
Other people.
It may seem to be
About you,
But when it seems
That way,
It sucks
A lot.
To grin at a friend’s
Good fortune,
To fall headlong, without thought,
Into a beautiful woman's
Everything,
To see a teacher reunite
With an old pupil,
To do something small
And kind for no reason
But because-
I haven't yet seen
A thing more sacred.
