Stop! Breathe deeply.
Begin bringing peace to the outer world
by regaining your own inner peace.

Then use that inner peace
as a platform from which
to approach the outer world
with perspective, understanding, and patience.

I would like to live a long life.

And I've seen the promised land.
I may not get there with you.
But I want you to know tonight, that we,
as a people, will get to the promised land.
