D oom and gloom, sometimes of our own doing;
E ven if not, we can choose how
V aliantly or cowardly we respond.
A cceptance does not mean
S urrender.
T olerance does not mean
A ll points of view are true. But
T o live, thrive, and love
I n this crazy, reeling world is to
O nly and in all things hope,
N ot giving destruction and despair a soul-hold.
