in life in dark times adversity will come
face it stoic fear bury head in sand or run
wisdom courage effort justice lived prepares
virtue ethics patience kindness the wise wears
think breathe positive thoughts superpowers
take care of yourself your family your friends
take care of other people other lives possessions
smile be at peace breathe in hope breathe out love

p3devote time energy to beautiful thoughts ideas images, in time the heart may will follow where the mind resides, because where we choose to live in thoughts is where personalities chosen can follow within folds of life love healing time
p2rather than wasting time in soul withering hate anger pain revenge, it is easier to pray ask God to take the hate death decay disease away, pray for days weeks months earnestly hate can dissipate,
p1in this life it is easier to be kind than unkind, in this life I do not sketch I draw nothing, I do not paint any portraits or landscapes, I write no novels just a little verse; but kindness is easy hate requires so much vindictive time energy
