Depression Today

Just heard on the news
How so many people choose
To take a powerful drug
Then sweep their problems under the rug.

Quick fixes while feeling sad
Seem to be the latest greatest fad
While others think it best the Gospel to preach
Still others look for the latest gurus for the wisdom they teach.

In an age when some wait certain the world will end
Tornados, earth quakes, floods, Armageddon?
Others say just get more things
Cause you know how much happiness money brings.

I say look deep within
Let the Age of Aquarius really begin.
All of the prophets said the same thing
Positive intentions can changes bring.

It's not all the things that you own that make you secure
it's what you do with your power that you can't ignore.
We've all heard that happiness comes from within
While all the religions are still waiting for the promised good times to begin.

The Messiah, peace on earth, enlightenment, joy for us all to know
If it's true that our soul is eternal and using this dimension to grow
Than the one life lesson I wish to share while I live
Happiness is in controlling our ego while asking to receive in order to give.
