Unstoppable

My hope/wish for mankind is that 
a small ember or flame would 
ignite causing a fire in our hearts
worldwide.

Causing a fire that can not be 
put out or contained. 

A fire caused by love. 
Love that’s not restricted  
by race, gender, wealth 
or religion. 

A genuine love such as 
this would be unstoppable 
and unbeatable. 

Hate has run a muck for
far too long.

Let the winds of change 
fan the fire within and 
cause peace and unity.

Too much time and energy 
is focused on our differences 
that we can’t see how alike
we are. 

Take the blinders off my friend!
 
What are you waiting for? 

Change can be uncomfortable 
and scary. But it's necessary. 

At least welcome it. Taking a 
stand/stance on something
positive can cause a domino 
effect. 

My hope/wish for mankind 
is that a spark then flame
would ignite in our hearts 
and souls.

That would spread like a 
a wildfire.  

That’s unstoppable and  
unbeatable.
