The rule that you should give your best
applies to aliens and guests
and also long time residents
whose obligations all “make sense.”
—–
You should not short the immigrants
who clean your rooms and make your beds,
who build your homes and milk your cows,
who do their work and keep their vows.
—–
Whatever your vocation be,
whatever substance it may yield,
a portion of the best of that,
God will accept on your behalf.
