Strength
Measured in lies
Measured in pain caused
Measured in lives destroyed
Is weakness.
Is less than zero.
Strength
Measured in open hearts
Measured in joy given
Measured in lives connected
Is power.
Is heaven on earth.
Courage
Measured in willingness to lie
Measured in willingness to deceive
Measured in willingness to devastate
To crush, to harm
Isn’t courage.
It’s cheap cowardice.
It’s emptiness of a soul.
Courage
Measured in Willingness to to be honest
Measured in willingness to trust
Measured in willingness to show oneself
And be seen, truly be seen
Is courage.
It is wealth of spirit,
It is fullness of soul.
Which have you been
The weak morally bankrupt coward?
Or the courageous, powerful rich spirit?
Which are you?
Which will you be?
