The Mathmatics of Hope.
Hope is our strongest coping mechanism
Hope is always something to cling to, for what else is left but despair
The Mathmatics of Hope.
For every
bad person,
there are
twenty good ones,
feeding the hungry,
teaching the uneducated,
running into burning buildings
to save lives.
Dying in a
useless war
to establish a
fragile democracy
that will fail in the end,
yet still they fight.
Millions of caring
loving parents
raising God
fearing children,
missionaries reaching
out in Sudan,
with little help from
the indifferent world.
Poets crying
out in voices
of angst and hope,
scientists working
on genetics to cure,
environmentalist
struggling to
save the planet.
God will give us
a perfect world,
when we are free
of this one,
and there will be
no bad people in heaven.
Our goal now
is to make our
surrounding areas
as peaceful and loving
as we can,
till like pieces
of a puzzle
it can create
a lovely picture,
in unlimited areas.
Sadly evil has stolen,
so many of the pieces
that leave this
world incomplete.
that is the
legacy of man,
and those who
seek evil will find it
in the end,
in the bubbling
lava and scalding pits
of a demon's
domain forever.
