A Great Word from a Great Woman

So, amidst much nonsense on social media,
there came a tiny voice, from a sweet little woman
whom I have known and respected for years.
No one famous - except maybe in her classroom.
She isn't a supermodel, or actress, or great athlete.
She's just a person; a human being;
a beautiful soul who offered a word
that touched my heart today.

Heal.

This nation.
This world.
People.
Races.
We need to Heal.

Bridge the divides.
Close the gaps.
Stop the hate.
Breathe.
We need to Heal.

Stop being offended by everything.
Stop believing you have the only viewpoint.
Stop thinking everything you read is right.
Do not respond to every statement.
Do not react to every action.
Do not be swayed with what you're shown.
Educate yourself and make your own decisions.
You're entitled to it - BUT you don't have to fight about it.
Heal.
Heal yourself.
Heal those around you.
Heal your community.
Heal your world.
Heal.
