Labor Day: Our Scrap of Time

If we are a captive of our scrap of time,
we can still influence eternity
by remembering
that we are the conscience of the universe,
and acting with that understanding.

We can—and must—
seek truth,
create beauty
and embody goodness.
We can *both*
work individually, to advance and thrive,
and work collectively,
to create strength and maintain balance.

It may only be a small scrap of time
that we are given,
but if we organize,
we can do remarkable things, together.

So may we be.
