No battle,
no matter how fierce
or glorious,
could ever give
as much to the world
as the good deeds
of those lives
lost within it.
No whore,
no matter how soft
or generous,
Can ever hope to ease the pain
in the soul of a man
who truly loves.
No wretch,
No matter how great
or lovely,
Can ever sing
loud enough to capture,
the hearts
of those with conscience,
For in the end they will choose
not to listen.
No evil,
no matter how frightening
or powerful,
Can ever bring doom
to the minds,
of those
who refuse to embrace it.

Often, when we are in the midst of turmoil, and all around us is
spinning out of control, it is diffcult to believe the storms of
life will ever pass. In such times as this, we can, it seems, do
nothing but tie a knot in the end of our rope and hang on. And this
is all we need to do. We need only to hang on to love, hang on to
light and hang on to truth. For when the storm has passed -- and
they always do -- these three will remain, as strong and certain
and invincible as they have been since time began. As Ghandi said,
love always wins.
So will you and I..Pierre and Susan...will rise up from the ashes no longer a Phoenix.

When the human mind is set on the good, then it is always the good quality they see in each other first. People who always find faults with others are actually not happy with their own lives.
