In spite of everything, I still
believe
that people are really good at
heart.
I simply can't build up my hopes on a
foundation
consisting of confusion, misery and
death.
I see the world gradually being turned into
a wilderness,
I hear the ever-approaching thunder, which
will destroy us, too,
I can feel the suffering of millions, and
yet,
if I look up into the heavens,
I think that it will all come out
right,
that this cruelty will end,
and that peace and tranquility will return
again.
In the meantime, I must hold up my
ideals
for perhaps the time will come
when I shall be able to carry them
out.
