I was thinking about a story from the Bible
Did I tell you to open your mouth
Let him talk. Don't mean nothing
I'm not a religious man, but I've read bits and pieces over the years
Curiosity more than faith
But this one story, there was a man
He was traveling from Jerusalem to Jericho
When he was set upon by men of ill intent
They stripped the traveler of his clothes, they beat him, and they left him bleeding in the dirt
And a priest happened by, saw the traveler
But he moved to the other side of the road and continued on
And then a Levite, a religious functionary, he came to the place, saw the dying traveler
But he too moved to the other side of the road, passed him by
But then came a man from Samaria, a Samaritan, a good man
He saw the traveler bleeding in the road and he stopped to aid him
Without thinking of the circumstance or the difficulty it might bring him
The Samaritan tended to the traveler's wounds, applying oil and wine
And he carried him to an inn, gave him all the money he had for the owner to take care of the traveler
As the Samaritan, he continued on his journey
He did this simply because the traveler was his neighbor
He loved his city and all the people in it
I always thought that I was the Samaritan in that story
It's funny, isn't it?, how even the best of men can be deceived by their true nature
What the hell does that mean
It means that I'm not the Samaritan. That I'm not the priest, or the Levite
That I am the ill intent who set upon the traveler on a road that he should not have been on
