Sometimes I wonder What’s the point? We think, and we think, and think some more. But how many problems can it solve? And how many people can it save? And how many wars can it stop? Sometimes I think too And one would point out Yes, but we all do. But can’t it lead us to a solution? And can’t it start to heal? And can’t it begin the peace? Yes the thinker would suggest, And no, the actor would demand. And his feelings would be torn, As the others tear the land. And the rivers dry, And the forests die, And the children cry… But we can think of a solution. *One meets his destiny often in the road he takes to avoid it. |

Great job Meg. I like the very last line. It hit me like a cheap punch(BAM!) This is obviously taken from the Point of view of a woman of action. I'd stand up for the thinkers, but I'm speechless. Good job. "The heart can think of no devotion |

I like this..but you have to realise that if we *think* of a solution to our problems, we can stop wars and such. at least, I would like to think that. heh heh, no pun intended.  Stace I'm just glad that now this rainstorm has ended, and I can see the rainbow once again. |

I love the ending of it. It's positive and I like it. The powers of thought can get you anywhere. I loved this one!  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |
