(10 minutes) that follows. Use separate paper to write your answers.
Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the
heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of
pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by
oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the
whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what
human life should be. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too
suffer.
This has been my life. I have found it worth living and would gladly live it
again if the chances were offered to me.
