There Is No Need To Prove What Already Exists Within

A kind woman was once asked,

“How can you be so gentle

in a world that is so harsh?”

She smiled and, pointing to her heart, she said,

“When you are strong on the inside,

you can afford to be soft on the outside,

for there is no need to prove

what already exists within.”
