For the Better??

I'm left thinking about the impact that my choices may or may not have in the world around me this afternoon.  I can't help but wonder what life would be like if we all, including myself, became more focused on celebrating our similarities rather than focusing on our differences.  Here's to dreaming of a world steeped in change and working towards it one decision at a time!

To Be Now

A picture paints a thousand words of this dichotomy:

We breathe tradition until it hurts nobody but me.

Why won't you listen to the voice calling;

To tear down walls that keep us all sheltered?

One day we'll be a reflection of truth

so I pray for the strength to be now

A foolish heart seeks only praise and I want not part of this.

I would take your place if I could be somewhere outside of this.

Without a reason you stand here stalling;

Afraid to lose what you hold dear, it's saddening.
