I could discuss Nike, Serena Williams, the Catholic Church, rappers overdosing; loss, pain, and injustice. But I’m not going to. We have all seen the news. We have all read the stories. We know. But what are we doing about anything?
Nike. Fight for what you believe in.
Serena Williams. Smash the patriarchy.
the Catholic Church. Save the children.
Rappers overdosing. Help the addicts.
What can I do today that will help tomorrow? I see Facebook posts, the youtube comments, the twitter threads. Sure, you’re just typing more words, but what is being done? I’m not pointing fingers. I am truly asking. I think a lot of us look at the major things that happen in the news and think, well, what could I do? The answer? It starts with you. It starts with your perception in the world. Give the world what you want given to you. This starts with talking to others. I understand we are back to school and back to work and really in the grind of getting things going after a nice summer off, but this doesn’t give us an excuse to not care about others. Take care of yourself so you can take care of others.
We give ourselves over to these mainstream ideas, completely being brainwashed by them with no vision outside of the box in which we put ourselves.
What is wrong with us? How can we look at the news, sitting in our homes, laying on our couches, and just be blind to it all? Why do we only get offended when someone doesn’t like our picture on Instagram, doesn’t invite us to a party or doesn’t agree with our comment on Facebook? Do we lead such small pathetic lives that we are so incapable of looking outside of our very small lives?
My goals for you: We can’t change the world. But can change the world as we see it. Change the little bit of the world in which we have a say, whether that be in school, work, family, society…. Don’t sweat the small things and love.
I would really love to discuss any of the topics I mentioned in this post as well as any others you would like to talk about. I sure do have a lot to say about it……
Today’s Mantra:
“I AM open to solution and miracles.”
love with all you got and don’t look the other way. Take charge.

Darling this is such truth. We must love more and hate less. Or not at all. Listen to others differences and accept them. Keep that going even though it is sometimes difficult. Most important make sure that you love others with great passion. We just need to love more.
