Hope Sits In The Trenches

Can you feel it?
How the soldiers felt in the trenches in the winter of 1780-81?
How everything seemed lost and victory unattainable?
They had no way of knowing the outcome...
they were in the throes of their reality...like we are now.  
It was the same for the other battles our country has endured.
Those alive at the time had no way of knowing 
how things would turn out. 
I suspect they thought all was lost frequently.

I want to channel the spirit of those who came before,
those who lived it and those who died for it.
At this time when nothing feels certain or secure
I will hold unto hope ...
"its eyes still gleaming with the light of  [74.7+] million lamps."
because...
"a better world is worth fighting for."

Namaste'
