I could have
done this….
A word of appreciation, encouragement…
That stone could have lifted….
A mail could have sent…
A letter could have written….
A phone call could have made…
I missed them...
A number of opportunities...
Unimaginable goodness...
A chance of excellence.
Oh No!
I have been doing it all,
I have been doing it every day; every time, every
moment…
I have been… is the Sarcasm of life.
Unwilling to let go,
Fear of defeat,
Justifying oneself, like a good lawyer, without a just
cause.
Nay, the sin of commission;
‘Tis the sin of Omission, says the Lord,
The Priests and Levites are guilty of.
You missed the chance of service
Missed the chance of mercy
Missed the chance of doing good
In surplus chances of
life.
Fr. Raju Felix Crasta
