Two related writings about the Future

Our futures are so fragile, we hold them in our hands.
We must be mentally agile, so we can know where
To take a Stand.
Every moment, every action you can take
(or not)
Can have momentous consequences.
Most people don’t know what is at stake.
Whenever we are wasteful, when we throw friendships and loved ones
Away,
Our futures are devalued,
Hearts are at risk for loves' sake.
~
Futures are like butterflies.
They change form every
Moment,
That is what is at stake.
As the
Purest of Gold is
Cast, into an
Infinity of
Shapes

“Future Butterfly”

Times may seem dismal,
Dark and foreboding.
It seems as
Though there is no way out, and no answer forthcoming.
~
Doubt and despair can cloud your judgment, your eyes
May not be able to discern clearly what opportunities
Await you just around the next bend in the road.
~
Do not give up your hope.
Do not give in to despair.
As long as there is life, alternatives will appear,
And Hope Remains.
There is green on the far
Shore,
There is light beneath the clouds.
Stay the course,
Be true to yourself,
Persevere in your walk thru life.
