On the eve of a new year, a new spring and an excuse to molt....



We must be willing to admit error, confront obsolescence, and throw out the old, tired ideas
We are no less than the earth my friends,
look, take a close look,
today, the earth is molting....

In a world where silence and indifference weighs on the shoulder of unity and solidarity,
In a world where wanting and having have replaced compassion and love,
In a world where feelings are forgotten and being alive has replaced living life,
In a world where reaching the top means walking on the back of others,
In a world where lonely bodies chose seclusion over sympathy,
In a world where we are helplessly roaming our days with the noose of life gripping our neck,
In a world where our trust and not just our beliefs have been lost in the oblivion,
In a world where our wounds grow deeper and our souls grow weary, our bodies grow weak and our spirits run dry.....

I would like us to live in peace with the world,
if dictatorship and oppression let us...

I would like us to look deeper in our souls and encourage tolerance,
if selfishness and self centeredness let us...

I would like compassion and kindness to become the norm,
if our ego and self-importance let us...

I would like our prisons to be free of our younger generation,
if human rights violations let us...

I would like our world not to be immersed in social maladies,
if the lack of knowledge and awareness let us...

I would like no child to die of hunger and war in the 21st century,
if the costs of nuclear and military powers let us...

I would like to see our youth be equipped to thrive in a changing world,
if cruelty and the death of humanity let us...

I would like friendships to be real and loving to be unconditional,
if virtual friendships and contractual affections let us...

I would like every year to be an opportunity for refreshing our mind and vision,
if prejudice and self righteousness let us...

I would like us to go from "me" to "us",
if our cultural diseases and our fear of globalization let us...

I would like the power of love to rule the world,
if the love of power let us...

Humanity has no boundaries, no religion, no politics and is colorblind. It is always beautiful and not expressed in words, but it should always be cherished. Living life requires our presence, and being present is our right and cherishing the moments is our only savior. We owe it to ourselves to create these moments. The past is gone, no one is handing us our future. We are the sole captains of our destiny and the key to our survival is to breaking our cocoons and evolve as butterflies.

Let us molt and flourish together and thrive holding the reign of our destiny...
