The Glass is ALWAYS Full

Lyrics
Headlines scream doom and despair
Spiraling downward, everywhere I stare
Environmental crisis, political upheaval too
Media sensationalism, what am I supposed to do?
But I don't wallow, won't retreat into denial
Face reality head-on, make it all worthwhile
Finding meaning in the effort, not the outcome
Liberation in the journey, not where I'm from
The glass is never really half full or empty
It's always entirely full, can you see?
Water and air, both present, both real
Apocaloptimist, that's how I feel
Acknowledge the darkness but still believe
Everything will turn out okay, I perceive
Twenty-twenty-five feels like a tipping point
Hypervigilance got me emotionally disjoint
But I focus on what I can do today
Plant trees, clean the oceans, mentor youth, light the way
Every small action contributes to the wave
Positive change, that's what I crave
Progress is slow, nonlinear, it's true
But worth pursuing, breaking through
The glass is never really half full or empty
It's always entirely full, can you see?
Water and air, both present, both real
Apocaloptimist, that's how I feel
Acknowledge the darkness but still believe
Everything will turn out okay, I perceive
When the world feels overwhelming
Ground yourself through meditation
Box breathing:
Inhale... two... three... four
Hold... two... three... four
Exhale... two... three... four
Hold... two... three... four
Simple... Anywhere... Anytime
There's always something to be grateful for
A kind gesture, beautiful sunset, something more
The breath in my lungs, life's beauty and resilience
Connect with nature, feel the brilliance
Not ignoring reality, engaging courageously
Finding meaning in small acts, compassionately
The glass is never really half full or empty
It's always entirely full, can you see?
Water and air, both present, both real
Apocaloptimist, that's how I feel
Acknowledge the darkness but still believe
Everything will turn out okay, I perceive
Stay grounded... stay hopeful...
"Please Stay Hopeful"...keep looking up....what you think and feel does make a positive difference to uniting the whole human tribe...
"Hey"...I'm proud of you, and I may not personally know you, yet I still send my love to you...you
