Have you ever been bullied? It's terrible, right?
Isn't it great when the bully is caught and punished?
NO!
That will only incite him further.
How about we figure out why he feels the need to do what he does.
How about we help him. How about we fix him.
Yeah … that.
And isn't social media just despicable?
People are so divisive and mean and ugly and hateful.
So we post about their ignorance and stupidity and childishness.
Just because we disagree.
Do we not see it's all the same?
It's all hurtful. It's all ugly. It's all mean.
It's all divisive and hateful.
Let us stop the vicious circle of insanity.
Change starts with every single one of us.
How we respond. How we react. How we choose to behave.
It makes a difference and it is noticed.
Choose kindness. Choose love. Choose hope.
Choose open and enveloping hearts and arms and minds.
Change doesn't mean for folks to think and act like we want them to.
Real change … beneficial change … will only occur
when we allow each other to be each other
and to accept that 'other' in all their imperfect glory.
Yeah … that.
And how about we just kind of relax a little bit.
Let's stop being offended by every breath and word and action.
Let's coexist with listening and laughter and love.
Yeah … that.
