I AM NOT GOING TO OVER-THINK FOR ANSWERS.

I DON’T HAVE THE ANSWERS TO EVERYTHING.
LIKE WHY IS CATASTROPHE HAPPENING EVERYWHERE, ESPECIALLY THE MANMADE ONES,
AND YET WE SAY,
THE WORLD IS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE TO BE IN.

I KNOW THAT I CAN’T CONTROL EVERYTHING.
I JUST HAVE TO LET MOST OF IT BE AS IT IS.

THIS I DO KNOW:
I WILL MAKE A CONSCIOUS EFFORT TO MAKE
THE LITTLE SPACE
THAT I OCCUPY ON PLANET EARTH
AS HAPPY AND AS PLEASANT AS POSSIBLE,
FOR THE PEOPLE AROUND ME.
THAT MAKES ME HAPPY.
