Putting others ahead of your needs

Not defeated by the rain
Not defeated by the wind
With a strong body to fight against the snow
And the heat of summer
Not greedy
Not angry at anyone
Always gently smiling
Eat four cups of brown rice and miso daily
With some vegetables
Put others before yourself
Listen well and understand
Not forgetful
Live in a small thatched hut
Under the shade of pine trees in the field
When there is a sick child to the east
Go and take care of him
When there is an exhausted mother to the west
Go and carry her bundles of rice plants
When there is a dying person to the south
Go and say there is no need to be afraid
When there is an argument or a lawsuit to the north
Go and tell them not to waste their time
In times of drought
Shed tears
In a cold summer
Wander aimlessly
Be called useless
Receive no praises
Receive no complaints
Such a person
I want to become
