Change the Way

Isn’t it better to raise up, than to tear down?

Better to light a candle than curse the darkness?

We are headed down a brutal path and we must have strength to stop it:

Spiteful, mean comments do nothing to assuage the molten anger of the many. They only fuel the flames of self-righteous rage.  When it boils over, death will be the victor.

Once, I was angry and my ex told me, very sweetly, you can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. What went wrong between us?

Let’s stop being mean to strangers.

Everyone is trying to get through their own life, experiencing sorrows, pain and disappointment you don’t know about.  Sometimes they are hard-boiled and crusty because they have seen too much.

Sometimes just a kind or helpful act or word on your part can change someone’s mind.

Give them something to think about.
