When Love and Hate Collide
In this world, there are two voices;
The voice of hate and the voice of love.
I choose love,
For love casts out fear.
In this world, there are two mindsets;
Incite violence or inspire peace.
I choose peace,
For peace is worth far more than gold.
In this world, there are two realms;
Darkness or light.
I choose the light,
For light begets hope.
In this world, there are two responses;
Condemn or forgive.
I choose to forgive,
For forgiveness is the fruit of wisdom and valor.
In this world, we have two choices;
Action or idleness.
I choose to act,
For action is the outward expression of one’s heart
In this world, there are two responses;
To harm or to heal.
I choose to heal,
For only then will our nation find peace.
In this world, you have to choose;
Which side will you pick?

…simple choices; may we always be grounded in the Love and Kindness that make the choices simple…
