This is all I want to say today. Love your neighbour.
We have one planet to live on. Everything we do affects all of us. Our emotions are contagious. I get angry and afraid, and the person next to me begins to feel angry and afraid too. And then we make decisions that hurt everyone.
I would rather feel love than anger or fear. Wouldn’t you?
We all have a choice.
I choose love today.
I knew you when you wore anger,
when your steps across the floor
were thunder and storm.
I knew you when your words were fire,
enough to burn the world
and set the air to flame.
I knew you when your pain was hard and sharp,
nailed between each breath
and beat of your heart.
For you I stand witness.
No need to speak.
Just reach.
My open hands hold love, unseen.
It is yours, a gift.
I place it on the cooling ash
and let you be.
