Eden

The plague that slithers over this land has left a trail of slime that will take months to wash away, if we are lucky.

It is possible that it will spawn maggots that will continue to try and eat away at truth, empathy and compassion for years to come, but I hope not.

I hope today marks the beginning of the light, the new age of reason, the day that the majority opened their eyes and their hearts to the possibilities surrounding us all the time, but hidden from view by the sulfurous cloud emitted by the fear of those who cannot, or will not open their eyes and hearts.

Eden has never left. It has only been desecrated by those who feel it is an elitist club for the people who worship gold and power.  Flush out the entitlement and judgemental attitudes, allow each and everyone of us to live and love in peace, and perhaps even make a small space for those who cannot abide this kind of blessing off in some distant corner, and we could find ourselves in the golden age of humanity.

Why do we let a minority ruin it for all the rest?
