Against the worthless void

Listen and listen close! Can you hear the echos of hatred crying all around you. I listen for it and hear nothing, because the death and hatred cannot speak.  It is only love and life that speak and I hear nothing. Hatred is nothing, it is the worthless silence in between, that which does not speak up in the face of great evil. If your alive, if your hearts still beat within your chest, speak out and let those who are suffering know they are loved. Fill the void and push back against the empty darkness. Hug those who need it and speak life and truth to all who are listening. I will not stand the silence even for a moment, even if it is only my voice filling it. So let us pray for the victims of all the horror that surrounds us.
