Vocation

"Service to self is slavery / Service to others makes us free"


Transcendental Sonnet #1318:

Vocation

 

I look into another's eyes

A father's eyes a mother's eyes

I look into their eyes and see

That I am them and they are me

We share a common family

Their destiny my destiny

 

These are my people heart and flesh

And this epiphany makes fresh

My call to serve them all my days

To love and care for them always

In my vocation I can see

What my true purpose is to be

 

Service to self is slavery

Service to others makes us free
