Unity
We all have emotions, our lighter and darker sides. There is good and there is evil which, within us all abides. Mankind is evolving. A necessity to survive. Towards new heights of tolerance, we slowly, surely strive. Love and brotherhood ascending heralding harmony's new day. Look not to the outside, for within us lies the way. Banish bigotry and prejudice. Resist jealousy and greed. Justice and equality must become our creed. We all sail together in a quickly sinking boat. If we don't all turn to bailing, we won't long be afloat. We must raze our seperating walls and build bridges that will span the differences between us. If we really try, we can. We must educate the ignorant and light the torch of liberty. With a hand up for our neighbors, we encourage unity. Honor and duty are requisite, if men are ever to be more than merely savages just come down from a tree. We need integrity and kindness, loyalty and truth. Understanding and mercy, justice and love to bear spiritual fruit As our Lord directed, "I say unto thee, love one another, just as you love Me". If we banish the evil hidden deep within the heart, the ultimate age of man truly, then, can start. "All for one and one for all". Is a shining goal to chase and if we never get there we'll have run a worthy race.
