There was a time when I believed my hard work and commitment would lead to better days, for myself and for the world of which I am a part.
I am not sure now if I should label that old belief naive, egocentric or just foolish. I'm also not sure what meaning to give to life given that the willfully ignorant and blatantly hateful are at the helm of the most powerful nation on earth.
Whatever it's called, it has led me to sadness, anxiety and confirmation that humans are not really evolved creatures. That quite likely we are not going to survive the damage we do to ourselves, our fellow living beings and the planet.
What to do now that the curtain has been pulled back and the hollow sound of promise bellows and echos through the Spirit chambers?
