i am not a religious person. in fact, i finally have the courage to admit that i do not have faith. more importantly, i am no longer ashamed or worried about the fact that i do not know which directions my moral compass should take me. instead, i look at my own life, and the people i have met and shared with, for answers.
here is what i know:
01. everyone should be free to be free.
02. everyone should be free to be awesome.
03. everyone should be free to be flawed and contradictory and weak.
04. everyone should be free to love. expression is always relative.
or if you prefer, through song:
lyrics of the last minute:
with this grimace
pleading
sharing the pain
rowing the boat
asking for his blessings
waiting expectantly
countless centuries have passed by
only now has it been revealed
the one who you had appealed to
the one who held your hand and guided you
where your boat had docked
from whom you had asked for a panacea for your pain
the one who did not visit your temple
it was you only
it was you only.
