choosing to love....

what does it take for a person to see?

why is it that some people wake up and see
and do something different?
and why is some never do...
no matter how loud life is screaming at them
that they need to see????

my entire being is filled with this huge mix
of something that's almost like agony for
two people that i'm watching and almost can't
bear to watch.

there's anger and frustration and confusion
and pity and disgust and compassion and such
deep deep sorrow at what i'm watching.

and i tell ya, stuff like this fuels me like
nothing else. i feel filled with defiance.
i'm not gonna be who they are. i cannot live
life like that.

this is it.
the gift is now.
fill it with love.
live that love.
breathe that love.
focus on what matters.
tell the people in your life they are everything
to you. and back that up with what you do.

what the heck would we wait for??

the time is now.

my god, open your eyes and see.
open your heart up.

if i could just scream this at the top of my lungs.
if we all could just hear it.

why why why don't some people hear it?

please, god, let me hear it....
let me live it....
