She said, “Look Mommy, it looks so beautiful.”
I spent amazing quality time with her these past few days,
while countless lives across the planet perished.
I’ve been telling myself this:
“Be thankful for every second as it comes and passes… for every second brings us closer to our ultimate fate. Death is certain, but essential. We suffer because we fear.”
Social media continues to shed light on how out of harmony humanity truly is,
but it has also proved that the energy of Compassion, Love, Understanding, Prayer, Hope, and Empathy is not completely lost.
“Society teaches us to practice… not for goodness’ sake, but to be better than. Society teaches us to practice chasing an unattainable perfection. Teaches us to practice feeding our desires.

I hope whoever reads this finds a thought to hold on to, that will bring them the peace they need to get through the night.
