THIS TOO SHALL PASS
Our forefathers
lived in caves
without electricity
or running water
susceptible each day
to tribal warfare,
manslaughter
πβοΈ
wandering in
the woods, vulnerable
to predation
facing every day
some emergency
situation
πβοΈ
disaster, since the
big bang, has been
an unheeding
occurrence
natureβs reminder
to realign
our priorities
and preference
πβοΈ
from tsunamis
to pandemics to
environmental stress
the threats we
face as a species
are countless
πβοΈ
catastrophes will come
and catastrophes will go
but the human spirit
has alway thrived
the human spirit will
always endure
πβοΈ
today there is disease,
downturn, isolation
compounded by
insecurity, fear
and frustration
πβοΈ
but ensconced in
our homes, we share tips
on health / medication
drawing strength from
one another through
hope and motivation
πβοΈ
with our DNAs
fortified by the power
to reason, to think
we are less fragile than
we sometimes
mistakenly think
πβοΈ
needing surprisingly
little in our lives
to get by
we may fall to
the ground
but can still touch
the sky
πβοΈ
the battle seems long,
difficulties long drawn
but. even the longest,
blackest nights
unfold into a bright
new dawn
πβοΈ
pain is a university
weβll graduate wiser
from this class
till then letβs be
each otherβs strength
and remember
This Too Shall Pass
