we the people

in light of New Zealand, i’d like to share a poem;

We must fight for the love the world has denied us.

We must choose to believe in the sun even when it is hidden behind the clouds.

We must embrace our fellow man and be the support that we can not find.

We must turn a blind eye to what makes us different from our neighbor and

We must hope for a future we were never promised.

Whether or not we quite believe it ourselves yet, it is now a vital responsibility to live like tomorrow will be brighter. We must use this time to create the world we want to see. We must share, and laugh, and love with an urgency and a devotion that we never knew we had.

We must share in this dark moment a sigh of relief as we lean on our friends, family, and loved ones. We are not alone. We are not without hope.

And we are full of love.
