Things Unspoken

Have you ever wanted to do something? I mean really do something... But in a world where the masks we wear are far from tangible, and the concept of compassion is defined by the limits of societal comfort and selfish boundaries — what I’ve learned is that those who care most get to do the least.

To be the least of these is to be a dreamer. A visionary for a better world, but it is a delusion beyond explication. For what is good and right is painted as evil, and what is evil is framed as the ultimate goal. What chance in a world such as this, where freedom of speech is limited to the comfort level of a hypersensitized snowflake nation…what do we have?

Nothing but a dream and a prayer that when we wake up, we will finally be awake.
