5122. 'THE WORLD CAN'T END TODAY, IT'S ALREADY TOMORROW IN AUSTRALIA'

'THE WORLD CAN'T END 
TODAY, IT'S ALREADY 
TOMORROW IN AUSTRALIA'
Being enticed by circumstance can dress up an entire world : 
I know this and have seen the evidences of weak men just
piling on. Rotgut in their sensitivities; wired laces in their
wild eyes. At the shoe store, people are selling leotards.
Little girls buy them for ballet class. At the sports store,
the boys all crowd in for their Little League hats and gloves.
What solace there, and what a contract for that store to have!
These are token evidences of grace, the kind a good world brings
forth, not the kind of guns and brutes, but a smaller, quieter and
more gentle world of hearts and minds connected as one.
