I enjoy writing this little blog - and it's fun to check the "stats" and see that I have some "followers". But sometimes I just stare at this blank white page and nothing comes.
This past week the news has been full of big ticket items that press many of my personal buttons. I have strong opinions about recent Supreme Court decisions (like what took so long?)…..and narrow political declarations (really??? in 2015??)….and disrespectful comments and posts about our President (excuse me, just when did people become so down-right mean?)…and comments regarding use of the Confederate flag….(sorry but I think people should be embarrassed to try to justify this symbol as being of any historic value).
But I guess I'll just keep my opinions to myself today. I know how I feel, I watch as people use their faith-based biases to justify almost any statement, I know that many people seem to have no interest in actually exploring the "other side" to look for any common ground.
A short post on my Facebook page says it all: "We don't have to agree on anything to be kind to one another."
