What if
instead of
attacking in anger,
surrendering to sadness,
daydreaming in despair,
this emotional energy
led to
cultivating curiosity,
making meaning,
expanding understanding?
“Pipedream”, you say.
“Wishful thinking”, you smirk.
“Whistling in the dark”, you belittle.
Maybe.
But with the
energy expended to
diss, dismiss, destroy,
what good
might you have
created?
And which
energy use
brings life?
(It’s all energy.
How we use it is a choice.)
