Welfare or Warfare

Written by Sister Mariella

Saints go marching – welfare Sinners go crushing – warfare Soul mates meet – welfare Soil seek bloodshed – warfare. Great men plan out – welfare Greedy men plot out – warfare Selfless seek out – welfare Selfish bring out – warfare. If both are fare, how come result is bare If both begin with “w” how come ‘wel’ and ‘war ’ differ When so much similarity in words Why do we get end result so very strange? All human beings look alike in structure All men on earth breathe in the same air How come one cannot understand another How come all differ one way or the other? Is it the plan of God to seek and find the truth Is it the mind of God that man differ and rebel and reach the goal If so, who is right, who is good, who is just If so what is right, what is good, what is just.   Bush felt it was his duty to destroy all the evil in the world Veerappan thought it was his task to diminish all social injustice Bin Laden felt the urge to chop the heads of the west Fanatics of all time felt their supreme duty to discard whatever is not of theirs. If each one works with his own mind We can have only warfare If each one works for one another We can have welfare.
