It All Begins With One.

the sun goes down 
the stars come out
and all that counts
is here and now
my universe will never be the same
i'm glad you came

there is a time;

when you just sit back and wonder why you are here.
why you were created,
and what your purpose is.

i have a little story to tell.
i once had a friend that didn't believe she had a life.
it did not last long, her sadness and her wonder,
of why she was put on this earth.

one day i asked her:
"why do you think you're here?"
and she just sobbed, shook her head, and buried her face in her hands.
"I don't know," she whispered.
but i did.
she then went on to tell me that she hasn't done anything important, when everything around her swirls about in motion and she is stuck in the earth without so much as a shake.
she didn't believe that she could make a change; or that she had.
that she even made an impact, or even a dent in anything.

that was the first time i saw someone i cared about believe in such a twisted, convoluted lie.

why do i know it's a lie?
she changed me.

imagine no possessions
imagine if you can
no need for greed and hunger
a brotherhood of man
imagine all the people sharing all the world

i told her that she had a life.
i told her that she makes a difference.
i told her, that with just one person,
there's enough power to change the world.

when i first said these words, i hardly believed the bullshit i told my dear friend.
but now, i'm glad those words left my lips, always there.
because to me now, it is not bullshit.
it is real.
this is real.
life:
is real.

imagine there's no heaven
it's easy if you try
no hell below us
above us only sky
imagine all the people living for today

imagine there's no countries
it isn't hard to do
nothing to kill or die for
and no religion too
imagine all the people living in life for peace

i'm so tired of all the fighting.
of all the heartbreak and regret.
it's time to do something.
it's time to step out of the comfort zone,
out of the four walls you call your home,
and make the difference you never thought you could.

"It All Begins With One."

there are so many horrible things in the world,
and no one believes it's their job to solve it.
to put a stop to it.
what disappoints me isn't the lack of passion,
or knowledge, or determination.
it's the lack of confidence.
the lack of truth,
the lack of love;
that no one loves themselves enough to believe.
to strive into the goodness of themselves,
and just break it out, to make that change and that mark that they were meant to.

so don't think that you are just a blip on the map.
that you are just an ant in a giant ant farm.
because yes, you are just one,
but you are the one.
you just have to learn;
to believe it.

you may say
i'm a dreamer, but i'm not the only one
i hope someday you'll join us
and the world will be as one

the sun goes down
the stars come out
and all that counts
is here and now
the universe will never be the same
i'm glad you came
i'm glad you came

with love and light,
