[Poetry & Philosophy]

HOPE IS LIFE

Written by Oshell Oh

Earth, there seems no hope, But there is hope residing in your heart. Listen to the heartbeat of hope, Look at the great surge of hope springing from within.

Sometimes, when you are in deep trouble, Hope may feel like it has fled your heart. But when you fall in love and find joy, Your heart fills once again with hope.

Earth, do not say there is no hope Even when your heart is filled with anger. Be sure to grab the rope of hope, Remember, we perish only when we lose it.

Hope is Life. Friends, fill your hearts with as much hope as you can, Share your beautiful hope with those in need. Let us raise a hopeful world together.

Hope is Love

Poet Oshell Oh

Hope is Love. Without your Love, Hope is never complete.

Hope is Love. Your Love ignites Hope. Hope stands with your Love forever.

Let Us Hope for Each Other! Hope can change the World, Turning Hate to Love, and the Hopeless to Hope.

Let Us Stand with Hope! Behold, until the Love of Hope spreads to All. Your Beautiful Hope is your Life.

Dream to the Sky

Poet Oshell Oh — April 23, 2023

Unfurl your wings of hope, radiant and strong, Soar into the cerulean paradise above. You and I, With hope's gilded oar, we row across the sky, Whispering joy in love's tender dialect.

Seeking paradise amidst the star-studded cosmos, Where flowers of hope bloom with undying light. By the river flowing in the sky, our hopes blossom ceaselessly.

A river of diamonds in the heart of tranquility, Clusters of cosmic flowers, endless in the universe, You and I are the beautiful blooms of hope.

Even if the earth trembles in cataclysmic fury, The dream of our hopes stirs anew. Hand in hand, bound in unity, For the dawn of our new tomorrow, Our dreams in the celestial paradise are limitless.

Though entangled, time and again, To the river that courses through the boundless sky, Our tale of resilience endures eternally.

The Vision: Securing Our Future

We must overcome this crisis for our descendants Writer Oshell Oh — July 23, 2021

If we look at the geological traces on Earth, we see a history of endless natural catastrophes. The Phanerozoic Eon contained several eras, each lasting millions of years, yet the dominant species of those times vanished entirely when their era ended. Now, in the Quaternary Period, humans survive on Earth. We try to secure our lives through nations and systems.

However, a new transformational approach is necessary. For too long, political ideologies have focused on maintaining power rather than fostering true freedom or new ideas. Many nations prioritize economic profit, often ignoring the central problem of global warming. Documentaries warn us that our planet is undergoing massive changes that will significantly impact humanity.

I do not want the Human Era to disappear like those before us. We must build new solutions to ensure the continuity of human life. We need to love one another and our descendants. We must possess an urgent sense of the Earth’s crisis. We need a new path—participating in the "Hope of Humanity" rather than conflicts of interest between countries. We must prepare space shelters for future disasters or look toward the safe colonization of other planets. We must overcome this crisis for our descendants, forever.
