810. Not even once

Not even once

Did my inner life take me away

From the outer world.

My inner life is kindness incarnate.

It made me aware of the needs

Of the outer world.

My inner life taught me

What to love in God —

Everything.

My inner life taught me

Whom to serve in the outer world —

Everyone.
