IT’S OK

It’s ok to try and be good.
There will always be those, convinced they have seen the world as it is – a false, horrible and miserable place,
They will justify whatever they do by all they think they know.
But it’s ok to disagree,
To fight back and say no,
To say,
“I’ve seen love and I can tell you it is not always so”
Trying to be good,
Virtuous,
Will not be easy,
Or cool,
You will not always fit in,
Worse yet, you will fail,
Sometimes horribly,
But still you can carry on,
Training – developing skill, insight and most importantly, heart.
To be good,
You will have to be tough
Resilient,
Find patience under stress,
And learn when it is time for resistance,
But you can do it,
And you should.
