hungry for kindness hungry for love hungry for connection from up above hungry to be heard hungry for peace we humans are desperate for this hunger to cease hungry for validation hungry for touch the lack of nourishment is becoming too much hungry for change hungry to succeed how will we ever fulfill all our needs hello? god, we’re down here can’t you see this mess? we’re starving inside and can’t live on less where is the nourishment? where is the source? the way is hidden and we’re way off course clearly you’ve decided to hide from our view so you must be hoping we’ll learn what to do . . . well, i suppose that . . . humans can be kind humans can love these things aren’t exclusive to heaven above humans can listen humans can cease fighting each other and generate peace humans can acknowledge that humans can share understanding and compassion when life isn’t fair humans can change humans can succeed because all humans have what all humans need maybe . . . as hungry hungry humans who’ve found a new way to be, i will feed you if you will feed me?
hey, do you see that person over there? the one you think is quiet and weird they have a story that you don’t know oh, and that person, over there the one you think is obnoxious and wrong they have something to offer that you can’t see maybe you should walk over there, start a respectful conversation and then listen because you will always learn the most from the people over there
shhh . . . hush now everything’s okay it’s all temporary there’s a place beyond this one where there is peace and where there are answers to all of your questions but for now, hush, breathe, open your eyes and go back to life
god, grant me the serenity to accept the people i cannot change (everyone else) the courage to change the person i can (myself) and the wisdom to remember this truth amen
