It’s so easy to go along with the crowd.
It’s easy to be cruel, to think less of someone else.
It’s hard to go against the crowd.
To be an individual.
To be compassionate and kind when there is no reason to be.
People love to call out a bully, but rarely find the bully in themselves.
(Glass houses and all…come to mind)
We have lost our way. People justify their actions by reacting, not by thinking.
“Other-ism” is a thing. “Whatabout-ism” is a thing.
Not looking at our own behavior, our own actions – no longer a thing.
Who are you for real? Not who would you like to be or think you are. But when a crisis happens, when something out of the ordinary occurs for real, WHO. ARE. YOU?
Just something to think about this day.
