The sun maybe shining greatly, yet it is clear that the world is now on its “sunset”.
Time maybe running, but don’t chase it.
Where are your colossal plans for our nation?
Or for the world?
Please… Don’t let your work degrade you,
nor the government,
nor the sun’s heat.
Where is your love? For your parents?
For your brothers and sisters?
For your friends?
And for your offspring whom you haven’t seen yet?
Where is your faith? In the “Father”?
In peace?
In love?
Let’s judge of our mistakes and shortcomings.
We really haven’t given enough.
Even if we just share some ideas to this nation,
or to the youth,
we’ll be able to breathe finely after some time.
Every time the sun sets, it’s good to take a glance at the setting sun.
And think of whatever we can add as a postscript to the good ideas just before the night falls in.
For when the darkness falls in, its minions will blind us with violence,
and take advantage over us,
and with great ambidextrousness.
And they will even dress down our Father in Heaven in front of us,
his sons and daughters.
They will devour ALL of our harvest and carcass.
If you will choose to live just to stop them from hurting you,
you will have to conform with them.
They worship the God of Darkness.
They are opulent, BUT their souls are disarrayed and perishing.
They are abrasive and doesn’t love ANYTHING.
If ever they love something,
their options would be money, power, and vice.
I may be a lunatic in your eyes.
But, I never grew up as a fool.
If ever I have mistaken with the words I have used in my prayers,
I won’t pass any message to anyone. Not even a word.
But, if the Father’s answer is a clear “YES”,
I’ll stand alone
Even if I stand without any of YOU…
