Facing the day

Facing the day

With a brave way

Is inspiring to us

That witness

The strength of your stance

As you choose to dance

To the strummer

Of a new drummer.

I wish I could see

The power of we

As into the future

Is the mindful cure

Of all the troubles

That infect our bubbles

And peace transpires

 Thru all the world’s wires

And love will reign

Again.

Why is there strife, hatred, and disregard for the beauty of the natural world? Today’s world news talks about things that are foreign to my basic human nature. Even the people that are standing up for issues become just as tyrannical as the people instigating things. Why can’t the world just get along with each other? There has always been disagreements in the world, because everyone thinks their way is the best. A balanced government, neither extreme right nor left wing, is the only way to have all voices heard. The balance starts with the individual. If we all find Zen, there would be no conflict, and peace would reign. Just some thoughts as I think and wonder about the state of the world. Things start with the best intentions. I just sigh and wonder what I can do to help the world. Little things like composting, recycling, and making use of thrift stores, are a few small ways to reduce my carbon footprint. Love is the answer to all the world’s questions.
