Future Shock

Future Shock and Wishful thinking!

The future is nevertheless dark and uncertain,

But we can see part of the way leading to it,

And can tread it cautiously with firm steps,

Remembering that nothing that can happen is likely to overcome the spirit of man,

Nothing can dampen the spirit of homo sapiens which has survived so many perils,

Also remembering the fact that LIFE for all its ills has joy and beauty,

And that we can always wander freely in the enchanted woods of nature!
