River of Understanding

A river it begins
When a cloud empties out somewhere up the road
A pearl begins with a grain of sand 
Wedged into an aggravated oyster
A movement begins
When somebody speaks up (or is it out?)
Oppression begins when someone
Decides to enforce a belief they are better than someone else.
Hatred begins when someone
Decides to emphasize differences

Where does love begin?
Where does tolerance begin?
Where does progress begin?
Where does healing begin?


Well, I think it starts with us.
