Notes About The Poem

Erawan Waterfalls National Park in Kanchanaburi Province, Thailand

- Not Gold, But Green Forests -

Words of truth you have never heard before
If I ruled the world;
I wanted to create a well-organized world of the future
where all is - (... or virtually all ) - are happy
__   A Wonderful New World    __

You may feel skinless -
no one can "vaccinate" themselves against problems
I would say that the most important thing is quality of life
Everything that is bad gets better when it gets brighter
Patience is needed, but eventually everything gets much better

Believe me in my word
I do not want to fill someone else's shoes

When I was a young man, with many problems -- I discovered eventually that, on the third day after, even with me doing nothing different or special, things just began to brighter and become easier to deal with. Like you say, hand in there. Wise words!
