The way the world works?
It doesn't work
WE do
Or we don't
Doesn't matter how you look at it
The inevitable is just that
Your thoughts may seem never thunk before
The sad part.. it's been thunk
It's been dealt with
By many, and many before
The good part about that..
You can do something or
Choose to do nothng
What do you see?
Will you let the less fortunate open your eyes
to view on a different level?
Will you HELP them? Or ignore them?
Will the young bring a past into the present?
Will you carry that WITH you?
And help make theirs something to carry forth?
Will you let yourself become different?
Or indifferent?
It begins with YOU
What matters to you??
THIS.. matters to me
People can be so cold..
What experience is excuse enough to be
heartless, cruel, and down-right NASTY?
I hear a lot of people ask...
Why should I......
Has the question ever been...
WHY SHOULDN'T YOU????
The world is crazy sometimes
The war, the local news, the government..
Not everyone is going to agree
That's the thing about being human
Choices............
Is it HARD to believe?
It's a choice to.. Everything is a choice to..
A choice for a reason
What's yours??
