There is always something to do.    
There are hungry people to feed,   
naked people to clothe,   
sick people to comfort and make well.   
And while I don't expect you to save the world,  
I do think it's not asking too much   
for you to love those with whom you sleep,   
share the happiness of those whom you call friend   
engage those among you who are visionary,   
and remove from your life   
those who offer you depression, despair and disrespect

~Nikki Giovanni
