a study of humanity

how we rip each other apart

to somehow keep our sanity

Life steps

Our society is framed to stop learning after school. We are to find a job, find a religion, and settle down.
I wonder what we could achieve, were we fighting to keep learning---

The first steps to learn basic life skills. And basic human decency. And love.

The next, to learn forgiveness. And acceptance. And love.

Then, to learn growth. And questions. And knowledge. And love.

To learn fun. And happiness. And freedom. And love.
To learn understanding. And listening. And support. And love.
To learn positivity in spite of the odds. And hope. And love.

To learn that life keeps going. And the world keeps spinning.

To learn that there is nothing to fear. And everything to love.

Live for you

because if the world comes crashing down, all you'll have is you.

because if you win everything and the world keeps getting better, don't you want to look back with pride and happiness?

Because your life is all you really have.

How lucky we are

To be enlightened.
To seek peace.
To appreciate life in all forms.
To encourage growth in individual ways and prize beings for their unique differences.

To know our power and make good for the world.

To have faith. Trust.

Love.
How lucky.

Keep on keeping on

When you're tired and low--keep going
When you feel broken and beaten--keep going
When you appear to be totally alone--keep going

You will find strength, courage, and magic in unforseen places.

When you're upset and irritated--keep loving
When you feel hated and forgotten--keep loving
When you appear to be nothing--keep loving

You will find compassion, heart, and love returned to you.

Keep on keeping on. If it's not okay, it's not the end.
