My Best - Date Unknown

The best in myself is just that. 

My best.

If it weren’t for that, I’d be just as fucked as the rest.

I was lucky though, I came from good people who were sure to give me what I needed to get by out here.  The thing that I am carrying in myself is the best they had to give to the world.  And that is why I protect it with my life, because it is so much greater than all of us.  That seems to be the difference between us and them.  We are the ones who keep the good things alive, the things that are worth living for.  The rest?  They try to find power in something that isn’t real.  They are the ones who are doomed to destroy us every one of us in their futile quest to control it all. 

This is the great battle. 

The fight between the ones who die to keep something alive, and the ones who kill because they feel nothing for life.  It’s a fight that has been going on for longer than we’ve been around, and there’s no doubt in my mind it will wage on for long after we’re gone. But that doesn’t make our fight any less important, because we need every win we can get. 

I know that someday it will be over, and one of us will be standing on the right side.  Until then, the fight is on, and we press ahead hoping our faith is a better guess than theirs.  And hopefully when it’s the truths time to shine, he’ll shine on us.
