That Kind Of Hope

"It looks the world full on, it looks reality in the face,
and it refuses to accept that things have to be this way."

Easy to write these words, not so easy to act them out.
Its PAINFUL to look reality in the face and 
see all the NEEDLESS suffering and destruction 
caused by humans.  It's just full-stop HARD.

(I'm going to exercise my goodness muscle and say
hurt humans.  Humans who don't know any better.
Humans who don't care because they are deeply wounded.)

I want to make them monsters and demons;
I want to destroy them for their heartless greed
and need to dominate others but that 
takes me nowhere I want to be.  
And it doesn't work.

Now, my "intelligence, energy, persistence,
creativity and courage" must gather the power
to get behind and sustain this insistence...
this "refusal to accept that things have to be this way."

May the goodness from the universe and beyond
be the force that propels and sustains us.
We are in this together.

Namaste'
