Helpless and heartbroken

I am one who knows there is poverty in the world. I am one who sees that there is enough for all, if only all would share. I am one who is helpless and heartbroken.

I just came back from a week of trying to help my parents. My dad is unwell and needs to go into care but they have too many assets and not enough cash to pay for the care they need. I feel helpless because I couldn't get more accomplished and heartbroken because I hear the fear and pain in my father's voice.
