I imagine that most of us joke and/or complain
that 2020 has been one hell of a difficult year
thus far. And, it has been; make no mistake.
So, where do we go from here? The plague,
as I tend to think of it, will continue and with
any luck run itself out. Still, we're coping,
masks and all.
The horrific racism we've witnessed of late
after the death of George Floyd, is also one
of 2020's failings. Surely we're all appalled
at these happenings. I doubt very much that
the majority of us lay awake nights thinking
up ways to hurt our fellow beings.
Once again, I don't have the answers, only
the questions. Perhaps it's a matter of
concentric circles. I start with ME. I take
responsibility for me and my actions. I treat
people the way I wish to be treated. I extend
the hand of friendship. I will not tolerate the
bad, the evil, the negative in my own life.
And, if we all do this, little by little we will
heal the world.
pray never forget
take responsibility
peace begins with me
