that has ever occurred to bring me to this moment.

petty complaints, and idle chatter.
About those, I just don't care.

and the cold sweat of our fear.
We accept gratefully the entirety
of our past and our present life.

always hopes, always perseveres.

Everyone has an opinion on many subjects
and is ready to share those opinions -

Sometimes it is relatively easy
to filter out these opinions.

However, if we have heard the same opinion for years
from our parents, friends,
government officials, or religious leaders,
we are more likely to believe without questioning
than to raise our filter of skepticism
and ask the hard questions.
