Maybe love

Maybe in this world there is no fate, no great cosmic alignment, every stranger is just a stranger, a tragedy just a tragedy. Maybe no person or promise is good. Out there, maybe there is no one waiting, no one who is perfectly made for you. Maybe this world is dark, and mean, and there are no happy endings. Whether it is by choice or design, or just out of necessity, the world I see is a little more romantic. Every step no matter how wrong is in the right direction, every decision carries its own weight, each interaction has its purpose. In the world I see, people no matter how mean or cold or jaded, are looking for something that maybe you have to offer. I see people who care about what they do, who care for those around them, who mean what they say. I see a place in this world that is waiting just for you, purpose and belonging, a feeling of relief like "I can't believe I used to be so scared". More often than not, for good or for bad, life has been nothing like what I had expected. From day to day you don't have a chance at guessing where you're going, where you'll end up. The only thing you have control of is how kind, how generous, how caring, how optimistically you see the world. Each one of us has no clue what is going on, what we're doing, love everyone you can, be good, be kind, be understanding, love.
