ignorance pains me. it is a pet peeve.

but sometimes i yearn for it.

"which side are you on?" i choose the side of life, of forgiveness, of nonviolence. it is a choice--make the right one. what will it take to make you see? when all the lights are extinguished and there is only darkness...will you realize then?

i am constantly struck by the differences between males and females. they say men are more logical, women are more emotional--how is violence logical? if you apply even an ounce of logic, you would see the point: there isn't one.

this doesn't affect me, but it does. somewhere in the middle of being the bystander and personal involvement...there is the big picture, and there is the personal perspective--and it scares me to be able to see them all.

don't forget the rest of your life.

i know it aches
how your heart it breaks
and you can only take so much
walk on, walk on...

stay safe tonight.
