drawn to the last

gulp of light, to sate

sight you sit in that

supreme darkness...

and wait.

word of The Word--

you feel it coming through.

steadily wearing away your

meditative mark.

you're living-dying all over

yourself.

you don't know where you are,

save for the summoning charge

of a final spring's lush push.

Good people still exist out there
As a matter of fact
Goodness is inherent in (almost) everybody
Never underestimate what people have been through or still facing currently

Our breaking limits are quite different
Our tolerance, resilience, perseverance levels are not the same likewise
In addition, we are not equally wise

Give people a benefit of the doubt
It costs nothing to be nice
He without sin, cast the first stone
Make the effort to see good in everyone

Hatred cannot overpower love
Just as darkness will always bow before light
Be a conduit of love today
Choose to only see good in people and things today

A healthy plant grown out of concrete crack
Indeed a display of perseverance
Growing regardless of the (not so favorable) circumstances
Unyielding in the face of oppositions
It will not give up, it will not give in
It's standing tall and looking unperturbed
That is nature's way of saying
You could rise above limitations
Only if you believe
And ready to stand for what you believe.

One step at a time
One punch at a time
One round at a time
One fight at a time

And when life throws
all it has at you,
all at one time, then
every step
every punch
every round
every fight
that leaves you standing
is a win

and every time
you hit the ground
only to rise again
that is a victory
that is worthy
of the champion that you are.
