Uzmi osmeh idaruj ga onome ko ga nikad nije imao.Uzmi zrak sunca iu?ini da odleti tamo gde vlada no?.Otkrij izvor iokupaj onoga ko Å¾ivi u blatu.Uzmi suzu ipoloÅ¾i je na lice onoga ko nikad nije plakao.Uzmi hrabrost istavi je u duÅ¡u onoga ko se ne sme boriti.Otkrij Å¾ivot ipripovedaj o njemu onome ko ga ne moÅ¾e shvatiti.Uzmi nadu iÅ¾ivi u njenoj svetlosti.Uzmi dobrotu idaruj je onome ko ne zna darivati.Otkrij ljubav ipokaÅ¾i je ?itavom svetu.
