Today has the potential to be very ugly. All over the United States. People aren’t feeling very united. So today I’m putting all of my energy into just loving people. It’s hard for people to be ugly to you when you are actively loving them.
For those of us with Anxiety issues this unrest can’t stop fast enough. I can’t control anyone else’s beliefs or actions. I can however refuse to engage in harming myself or others. So I don’t care who you are, know that today someone loves you. And wishes the best for you. You don’t have to follow the crowd, be you and speak the truth.
Have a wonderful Saturday and tell someone you love them today. Maybe not the post man though because he looked at me oddly when I said it.
xx Patricia

What a timely post! The unrest has made it’s way up to my city, there is a rally planned for today at our city hall and the actors spreading their hateful words need your love, thank you for sharing.

What a beautiful sentiment, thank you! I agree, it’s so important to spread love and positivity and sometimes that includes standing up and say “no more”. We need both.

Wow this is so lovely. Thank you so much for sharing this Patricia. I completely, 100%, on point agree with you. I’m not too political, but living in the U.S. I know exactly what you mean, so thoughts of peace, love, and friendship are definitely in desperate need today. ❤

You hit it just right. The best way to handle ugliness is with kindness and a smile. It disarms people.

Yeah, he kind of backed up slowly. I think he thought he was on Punked or something.

Your post hits home. But last night I went to an Irishfest in Milwaukee, and one of the Irish bands wrote a special song for today’s times. The spokesman said we are not Republican, we are not Democrat, we are not Independent. We are Americans. And while that in itself is country-centric, it means the same for us all. We are human, we are good people. We just don’t get the coverage the lunatics do. Do not give up on humanity — starting with your readers most of us are a friendly bunch!
