A Year In Review

Some people lost weight.
Some people gained weight.
Some people have died.
Some people were born.

Some people got together.
Some people broke up.
Some people had sex.
Some people did not, myself included.

Some people became homeless.
Some people were welcomed in or back.
Some people barely hung on.
Some people are eternally grateful they did.

Some people stopped working a job.
Some people started living in their purpose.
Some people removed themselves from the equation.
Some people learned to think outside "the box".

Some people are oppressed and do not know it.
Some people are oppressed, know it but, don't give a fuck.
Some people are oppressed and are doing something about it.
Some people are oppressing other people and need to be stopped. Now.

Some people just want to watch our planet burn.
Some people just want to watch a sun set.
Some people just want to watch a loved one breathe one more breath.
Some people just want to watch our social fabric be torn.

Some people decided fists are better than words and resistance.
Some people decided love must conquer all.
Some people decided hate must devour them.
Some people decided hope must live in our hearts.

Some people showed us beauty.
Some people showed us ugliness.
Some people showed us a better way.
Some people showed us signs of good deeds, in a weary world.

Some people made it through another year.
Some people do not know if they will again.
Some people have a plan of action.
Most people will just wing it.

All people need liberty to live a purpose filled life.
All people need another person to hold them at night.
All people need peace to help them figure it all out.
All people need hope and wonder to motivate them when they do.

Resolve to pour them all
into any empty cup
after yours is full.

Cheers.
