a choice is made

I find once again words fail and I can't describe what I'm trying to say.

I find so many times, when choice has to be made
they choose to keep pride, keep their image, keep their idea of life
over other people. My question what is really important?
Is my money, my image, my pride worth more than you?

I remember in high school I had a team project,
where one team member gave me work that was lacking in almost every respect.
So I fixed it and handed it in.
When later asked if he was still my friend I said it didn't change things in my mind
I was surprised by the question.
Was it the right thing to do I have no idea.
Maybe there was something else at work.

God Bless us
God Lead us
God Give us strength
