Oneness of All

What we are is who we are
                  be true to one self or become false to all others.


You cannot run from yourself
you are always there in the end.
Hate yourself and it is shared
Love yourself and you are scorn
Modern world relationships
like the bar scene in original Star Wars
people beyond depraved
strange illness of who of what Why?
Evil is celebrated dominating culture
leads to boredom and sickness
Excess for meaning, materialism hungers
delusional depraved delirious
empty souls hollow beliefs
A world without God
is a world without reason
How good is it always to feel good
constant pleasure becomes numb
ups and downs, some good some bad
Balance is a life that lives
Prosperity preaching leads to a poor Church
Generations before us
Generations after
Billions upon billions of souls
not one exactly the same as an other
Oneness of God, me, you, us
a step forward, a step back and you are where you are at
Answers lead to questions becomes doubt
Maybe we think too much
Maybe we worry too much
Maybe it has ended and we are beginning again.
          Oneness of All...
