For Goodness Sake

When the world seems to have gone topsy turvy

When we’re not quite through with what has already dizzied our lives

it is too easy 

to want to run away,

to want to hide,

to let go of anything good


Then it is time to 

stand still slowly till

our heads clear, 

our hearts stop pounding

and we stand tall again

on the surety of our own two feet

to feel the goodness within our souls.


“When I despair, I remember that all through history 

the way of truth and love have always won. 

There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, 

they can seem invincible, but in the end, 

they always fall. Think of it - - always.”

~ Mahatma Gandhi
