The very least you can do in your life is to figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live in that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it,under its roof(barbara kingsolver)... this is the journey of defining my hopes and living them to the fullest...and all the random junk along the way.

Just wondering

Do you ever wonder when the "grand scheme of things"
won't be just a scheme?

Ever wonder when whether I enjoy my next breath,
depends on whether you enjoy yours?

Ever wonder when families will no longer be endangered?

Do you ever wonder if "and justice for all"
will ever ring true?

I wonder if we'll ever trust in God
rather than our own hands;

If we'll ever see the beauty behind the masks
and far beyond the bones and pretend that make us shine.

Will you see the Light that is trying so hard to melt the mud
that molds itself into every crevice of your openness
and mine...?

Will you ever know that the creator of the stars and oceans of your world
also created those dancers in mine?

And though the rhythms we live by have different times,
are all written on the same page,
by the same hands,
the same mind,
the same love...

Do you know that the path you travel
is just an extension of mine;

And that the Great Divide that separates us
is the abscence of the Love that makes us blind...?

Don't you see that time is turnig the kaleidescope in which we live,
and you and I are the pieces and shapes and hues
that tumble and collide,
weaving a masterpiece for the Eyes above and the Minds beyond
the chaos.

When will the dying dreams and the fading somedays become
what we live and die for
in these moments we call today?
