Poem: Forward…
The forked tongue of the future lies ahead
Beckoning us forward. Advance! Progress!
Regardless of the perils and our dread

And no matter how much we feel the stress,
The forked tongue of the future lies ahead.
And whether we fly the black flag or red,
The same indignations we must address
Regardless of the perils and our dread:
The starving masses, children barely fed;
And even for those who have even less
The forked tongue of the future lies ahead.
So throw away your doubts; let us instead
Rejoice in future’s coming, and impress —
Regardless of the perils and our dread —
Our generation’s mark. Let it be said
We lived, loved, built, and understood that, yes,
The forked tongue of the future lies ahead
Regardless of the perils and our dread.

Duty accomplished is the greatest satisfaction. When you focus on your own suffering, adverse conditions can overwhelm you, so always remember what it is that you are here to do, and who you are here to help. You are stronger and more capable than you think.
All the Buddhas are with you! They are not figments of your imagination. They are more real than any “flesh and bone” beings you have ever encountered.
You have taken Refuge, and They have welcomed you into Their eternal mandala. You are following Their instruction, obedient to Their Dharma. You have Buddha Nature!
