It's so easy to be mean about it.
It's so easy to see the news develop.
To watch the actions, to sneer.
It's so terribly easy to make people angry,
especially when they already want anger.
Especially when they feel they personally have been injured by the world.
Their sorrows are the greatest sorrows.
They deserve recompense! 

And I,
am supposed to feel good about an extra two grand in my pocket.
Right as impoverished children lose their healthcare.
Right as their mothers and fathers will worry whether or not they'll live.
They, who have done nothing to deserve this, will worry.
I, who have done nothing to deserve this, will prosper.
Right as all of this happens, I want to be angry too.

I can, but I can't.
Anger never gets anywhere. I worry what does.
Is it hope? Is it resolve? Is it unwavering balance and fortitude?
The world is never stagnant. It swings back and forth.
A pendulum, never ceasing. One way, then the next.
Overall we grow, overall we move on.
Overall we conquer and develop into better, stronger, faster humans.
A better world and a better life for all.

But how do I not get angry about it in the meantime?
