I can’t right the wrong(s) of the world.
I can love the world regardless of how the world responds.
I will.
I can’t change the past or what folk did in the past.
I can do my best to create a better future for the world.
I will.
I can’t.
I can.
I will.
We all make the world a better or worse place.
By our choices.
By our actions.
By our inaction(s).
I feel hopeless sometimes.
I feel helpless at times.
I feel hopeful always.
Yet, I try.
doing what I can,
Cassandra

Note: Feeling awfully hopeless. Feeling quite a bit helpless. Feeling a tad hopeful.
I keep wondering when my change might come. Earlier, I cried knowing there is a chance my change will never come. Not as I imagine it should or shall or should.
I did NOT want to get out of bed. I stayed in bed. ALL day. I did NOT want to get up. I got up. I made me make coffee. I made me make me turn on the laptop. I made me make me turn on some uplifting music.
Finally, I made me make me get on here to tell you:
You are loved.
You are NOT alone.
Ah, beloveds. Keep going. Keep walking. Rest when needed. Rinse. Repeat. Be sure, beloveds to turn up the music. Loud. Dance through this hard. Ah, God, why does life have to be so lifery right now?! Asking for many friends…
One step.
One step.
One step.
You are loved.
You are NOT alone.
Keep on beingβ¦YOU!

You’re right! We must choose certain words carefully! π
