A Wider Vision

 
After all these troubled and tumultuous times
And the craziness happening around the world
We’ve been able to stay calmly together
Even when things seemed so unsure

After all the ups and downs in recent years
Even when we thought it would be the end
We were able to pull ourselves through it
Even though we lost some dear friends

After all the frustrations and latent vexations
We managed to solve our problems with clarity
Growing older has given us a wider vision
A collective wisdom coupled with sincerity

After all the leaps of faith and tests of patience
We have achieved things we dreamed as youth
With logic and kindness there is more harmony
Even when there’s darkness we can see the truth

These things accumulated throughout the years
Families, friends, careers, all that makes us grateful
But after all the difficulties I think I can really feel…
A calm sense of peace for which I am truly thankful
