My wishes

My wishes

When our strength is challenged
Under horrific conditions
When our spirit is low
And our hopes spiraled down
To the abyss
I can't seem to grasp a good thought
Nor can I muster a word
That brings sunshine and laughter
To our broken world
And yet deep down my heart
Bleeding so incessantly
In the silence of the night
Still wish somehow
When the morning comes
So does a new tomorrow
That is filled with peace and love
And happiness for all mankind

If only....wish is all it takes to make it happen...

I have been consumed with confusion lately. My hopes for a better future of our world and humanity is getting dimmer and seems so unlikely to turn around.

I'm sad and hopes are nowhere to be found.

...I must carry the load

it's true the feeling of forebor is strong
but then I believe we are in the dark times now
it only gets worse not better
but we just have to carry on ...

Lindsy - each new hope starts with a spark of light. Each of us needs to be a spark of light to spread God's love around the world - that is all we can do. "This little light of mine - I'm going to let it shine. This little light of mine - I'm going to let it shine. This little light of mine - I'm going to let it shine. Let it shine. Let it shine. Let it shine!" And if each little light lights another light - maybe eventually the world will be lite up again. While there is life - there is always hope.

Take care.

Interesting poem. Made me feel like I'm living a life of luxury. I never get below happy. Even when it could be construded as time to visit hospital by most lol. There is always happyness even amunst darkest times. Ya just have to stear in another direction before crashing of the rails. It ain't that hard. This pc thing is doing more harm than good. It making millions of people weak minded. An one needs a strong mind to survive. It aint that hard.
