Every Little Thing
if every little thing that you did
made a difference
would you do things
a little different?
if every thing that you said
built the world
would you be the sacred keeper
of your word?
would you believe me
if I told you
you’re the reason
we are here?
would there be meaning
to your breathing
if your exhale
made the air?
~Climbing PoeTree
I believe firmly that every human has rights, but more importantly, we have responsibilities. I must guard and protect the Earth and its inhabitants in whatever way I can. Though I am limited in power, it makes no sense to give up the little I do have in despair because I don't have more. I can vote; I can speak up when I hear the truth twisted and present the facts (even if that might not change minds), and I can interrupt people who spout hate-filled philosophy as if I agree with them and explain why I don't. Little things do matter.
