3,600 children killed so far in this proportionate war avoiding innocents. 3,600 more reasons to hate and kill. If my children were killed I’d want revenge!!
When The Lights Go Out
When The Lights Go Out
When the lights go out
The show’s over;
A brief yet vivid
Supernova.
No amount of faith
Will alter the fact
That we’re never, ever
Coming back.
Once is all there is.
Nothing more,
Nothing less.
All we can do
Is to
Give it our best.

How much better life is when you are not living in fear or hope of the next life. Each moment is precious.
You only get opportunities once.
Suck it in. Lap it up.
We live in the midst of wonder.
This invention of an afterlife was deployed to exploit soldiers. It was instilled to remove the fear of death so that they would be fearless on the battlefield.
This invention of heaven and hell was a control mechanism. Nothing more.
Live for today.
This moment is all we have.
Standing on a ledge
Standing on a ledge
We’re all standing on a narrow ledge.
Any moment we could fall.
On the edge of an abyss
Could be at the end of it all.
On the brink of nuclear holocaust.
We live every single day
As if it was our very last
As we work, rest and play.
Nothing is at all secure
Though we pretend it is.
Swerving death every day
In this game of hit and miss.
We expect every day to repeat
As if there is no change.
But increment by increment
We mutate into the strange.

Life is short and fragile. The time when we are young is fleeting. At every turn danger lurks. It’s a wonder anybody lives to old age.
One moment of inattention. One instant of bad luck. One push of a button. One pull of a trigger.
