Nothing lasts forever

But the world is timeless

What good is it to destroy it?

What are we getting out of it?

We are in the mode of survival

We are trying to make ends meet

Giving to our children

To grow and prosper

Making them strong warriors

Promoting to become leaders

Hoping tomorrow will be better

What is love?

What is hope?

If you don’t believe?
