words distort the truth. being human distorts the truth.

"a human being is a part of the whole, called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. he experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest-a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. this delusion is a kind of prison, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. our task must be to free from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty."

~albert einstein.


break free

if only
we could see through each other's eyes
there would be no more fear
there would be no lies

if only
we could
feel empathy for every human
and animals alike

if only
if only

break free

break free from the suffering

it's up to us to put things right
with every gentle spark of light

there's something out there-
can't you feel it?
where we come from
where we truly belong

our true source

our true song
