~A short chapter, as I am much tired.~
To save a life.
I saved my boyfriend's life.
I loved him so much, he couldn't,
wouldn't,
kill himself...
I hope that counts as saving a life.
To believe in ourselves?
To believe we can help ourselves up,
to believe that we can make it,
to believe we can forgive each other
and love each other, or accept each other
to believe that we can change the world?
Maybe that is arrogant.
I don't really understand how,
for my trusty dictionary is on lease to a friend.
Sister Theresa was not arrogant,
but she believed in people, and in God,
and changed a little part of the world.
She loved, and respected, and believed in
our Hindu and Muslim sistren.
I love her.
If I believed in an afterlife,
she would be in Heaven with the angels,
smiling down on all of us.
~~~~~
To say no one is good, and no one is "good enough"...
I can pick out plenty of people,
whose goodness and kindness outway (in my eyes) that which they have done wrong.
Like my Auntie-Mama and Uncle Tom, who took me in,
and love me and heal me.
Mother Theresa, as well.
Jay-chan. Amanda-kuns. Allison-chan.
Perhaps I am only an unworthy human,
so my voice does not count.
But I believe it says something.
(Huh. So a vicious child murderer who accepts Christ is better than a Muslim Mother Theresa, who prays to God as well...)
Spiritually, I feel as alive as I have ever been.
I talk to the spirits - did you know?
Ask my tarot cards what they're saying.
Sometimes they answer with riddles and paradoxes,
and sometimes they are as clear
as the dueling bells.
Perhaps God speaks to me
through the tarot.
(Logic gave you the computer you're typing on, the clothes on your back, and the ability to calculate a^n+b^n cannot equal any c^n where n is greater than 2. Okay, maybe that one's not as cool...)
The world exists.
Life exists.
I can feel beauty everywhere
see it and hear it.
The lilacs' breath gives me new life.
That is what I feel and hear.
That is what my spirituality is.
Perhaps...
if we only believed we had this life only...
we would be more interested
in giving the world
a new lease.
Stop world hunger,
make world peace
and all those cliches
which can be truer than truth.
Humans are not good.
Humans are not bad.
Humans are not perfect.
From those three ideas
we could work and try
to save our children.
To save a life.
Believe in the possibilities...

A/N: Okay. NYB, you kick ass. Better? ^_~
And I watched the SUBBED version of SM. DiC suuuux.
I've referenced...ah, four anime's as of yet. Guess 'em all, and a round of cookies! Possibly hash brownies for those 18+. It Ain't Nobody's Business if I Do.
K2, yar! beren, yar!
By the way, reviews on everything is encouraged. Please, tell me whether what I'm proposing sounds okay, or bad, or how I can improve on it. Constructive criticism is good (please put in at least one compliment before tearing it apart, though...) and flames will be used to toast marshmellows. Here, anyone want one? *offers*
