Eager to resolve a challenge
Step by step we move along
Ready for the coming blows
Of life, unknown hypocrisies
For while the most part we are lifted
Toward the goals we see before us
There are always those who tear at us
Who drag us down, out of fear or hate
And these we must, as the Dalai Lama says,
Entreat them to become our friends
For we never know what they are facing
What their limits are, their delusions
And we find that when we dialogue
With those we think are enemies
We learn what difficulties they face
And perhaps together, we can resolve
To put our minds together so that
Our problems melt away and are gone
