Help, with your prayers, all those brothers and sisters:
who never find the time or resources to be useful to anyone;
who declare themselves affronted by ingratitude on all sides;
whose eyes are cloaked in darkness and so see evil in all situations;
who dream of a thousand castles in the clouds, but do not light one candle on the ground;
who will only cooperate in the ivory tower of personal interest, unwilling to descend so as to collaborate with others;
who believe themselves to have special missions and thus entitled to exceptional benefits;
who use up precious time talking exclusively about themselves;
who give up the process of learning from the human struggle;
who never cease to find excuses for all their faults;
who want to live like orchids in the living room of the world;
who judge themselves to be the obligatory centres of general attention;
who make a fetish of illness and obstacles.
These are very sick people in need of Silent Help.
