301. The Pain of Being Human

In a world filled with doubtful minds,

troubled hearts, and tired souls,

I can foresee a future that is not so;

A future that will lead to humanity’s rise. 

A future that knows where we’re meant to go,

and what what we are destined to do, 

and to find our purpose in life… to find our hope. 

And I can foresee a kind of happiness, and peace;

a far and distant dream of a future-could-be.

Though I fear that we are veering far off course,

towards a future that dwells in utter tragedy. 

Though this is not something yet set in stone.

In fact, I can foresee a great tide is rising;

One that will bury Evil beneath the ocean floor,

and the tide itself will give way to so much more. 

But in what we face today, it will take time.

It will take time for your soul to rest,

and for your heart to mend itself back together. 

And it’ll take time for all of your doubts to fade away,

but you will come back stronger, and better.

And you will realize that all of it was for a reason; 

We could never know what a world of peace is, 

if we did not first experience the pain of being human.
