Life isn't about what you get from it.
Life is about what you give to it.
It's another week. For some, just hearing that
Brings a feeling of sadness, depression and angst.
As a society we buy into such things and those
Who don't, appear to be Pollyanna-like, foolish,
Die hard, the glass is always half full, positive
I am tired of turning on the TV to see another
Senseless act of violence. I am sick of reading about
The stock market, job loss, armed robberies and war.
Still, I am not foolish enough to believe that all
I need to do is turn off the television, stop reading
The newspapers and avoid the Internet.
I must still remain aware but balance it all with
In spite of all the ugly in the world,
The beautiful is overwhelming!
You cannot hide from the day. Violence and hatred
Does not stop simply by denying it.
As much as you hate Mondays, the sun waits for no one.
There is no giving up or giving in on life,
If you awoke this morning and Are dreading heading into work,
Remind yourself there are Millions now unemployed.
Find time to help those Who have no work to go to.
If you want to hide from the news of a more violent
Society do something...give back.
It is said that Mother Theresa
Was asked to join a Protest against the war.
"When you have a demonstration for Peace,
For every act of violence
For everything you see as ugly
Plant something beautiful.
Be aware of what's wrong in the world
I'll spend it giving back!!"
