Reason

What reason do you have to continue living?

To open your eyes in the darkness of mornings,
to continue breathing the cold air,
to continue walking, one foot at a time, forward.

What for?


Have you seen how free the trees, the birds, the sky, the sun, and the whole natural world God created out there?

Have you seen how calm and at ease they are?
Despite having witnessed humanity's worse calamity,

Have you seen how serene they look?
Looming high, reaching to the sky, fleeting, soaring, free.


Now, what reason do you have to continue living?
