Truthout is an indispensable resource for activists, movement leaders and workers everywhere. Please make this work possible with a quick donation.
Our purpose is to love and love some more.
To fail to love would be a mortal crime.
We don’t know what the future holds in store,
but surely this: we will each run out of time.
So we are charged to love beneath the sun
while we live on this sacred planet Earth.
Fast running time will not stop for anyone.
By our love we show our worldly worth.
In my garden I watch the seasons flow
as time moves on passing through the years.
We each have our faith and our fiery fears
and through it all we know what we will know.
When we love we pull our planetary weight.
There is no time or place on Earth for war or hate.

Media that fights fascism
Truthout is funded almost entirely by readers — that’s why we can speak truth to power and cut against the mainstream narrative. But independent journalists at Truthout face mounting political repression under Trump.
We rely on your support to survive McCarthyist censorship. Please make a tax-deductible one-time or monthly donation.
