Where are we going?
Who are we hurting?
When can we stop?
I can't answer that for any nation or people,
I can answer that for myself.
I set boundaries,
I set limits,
I set my time,
I hurt no one.
I try to live with integrity,
I try to live with humor,
I try to live with kindness,
I try to do the right thing.
Sometimes I fail,
Sometimes I rage,
Sometimes I cry,
Sometimes I have mean thoughts.
I'm human,
We're human,
We make mistakes.
Trying to fix our mistakes,
Trying to right a wrong,
Trying your hardest at all the things.
That's all we can do,
That's all I can do.
Try, be kind, live with integrity.
Peace starts at home, with yourself and your family.
Do the work.
Your words are inspiring. So well said! Glad you are putting that message out into the world.
