Reasons to be Hopeful

I just started reading, one of my Christmas gifts, “The Book of Joy” by His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu with Douglas Abrams. I am extremely thankful that I can read, have the privilege to write here, that I can experience many more fulfilling,  uplifting moments of life and that I can continue to live and to hope. I would like to share the following from this book: “The ultimate source of happiness is within” Dalai Lama. “We grow in kindness when our kindness is tested” Desmond Tutu.

WHO Can Stop You?

First detected in Wuhan, China

You affect the entire world

With your rapid virulent spread

WHO says that you will

Create havoc in society

And suggest new protocols like social distancing

And continue to plead that you can be avoided

Through applying old hygiene practices

Like washing your hands

There is no cure for you

But there may be a vaccine

To wipe you out

In the meantime you’re destructive

And you destroy by taking

You take man’s life, his health

Even his mental state

You affect economies

And further take man’s livelihood

You take, you take and you take…
