Philosophical Epiphany

I believe

all men are basically good

and that evil is provided

by those who don't care enough

to show compassion.

I believe

in a God

who loves us

and provides for us

protects us

and allows us to form our own destinies.

I believe

in love

its power to create life

and destroy the image of perfection.

I believe that adoration

proves the (ability) of men

to throw away his inhibitions

an d trust wholy.

I believe

in fantasies

that they may keep life worth living.

I believe

in destiny

and free will

that they may go hand in hand

as we forge our own fates.

I believe

that Science

and God

are brothers in faith

for neither disproves the other

and why

if we have the minds to think it

must we toss one away as untrue?

I believe in Me

for I must carry myself through this life

and march along to the songs of my own voice.

I believe

that peace

must be reached alone

before we can all share in tranquility.

I believe

that one day

we will have all the answers

that we maybe never wanted.

And I believe

that no one

understands the power we hold

as people

who feel

love

hate

anger

despair

that we are capable of

destruction

and creation

and that the one thing holding us back

is our fear to believe in choice.
