The House by the Side of the Road

Below is a poem by Sam Walter Foss called The House by the Side of the Road which I feel speaks to who I am and my personal feelings and perspectives towards helping people through a life of service.

There are hermit souls that live withdrawn

In the peace of their self-content;

There are souls, like stars, that dwell apart,

In a fellowless firmament;

There are pioneer souls that blaze their paths

Where highways never ran;-

But let me live by the side of the road

And be a friend to man.
