To whom to Listen … (11/17/15)
Frankly, who NOT to listen to is a lot easier to identify than who TO listen to, so let’s start there, shall we?
My Friends, do NOT listen to anyone whose political residence is located within the boundaries of Washington D.C. … *Do NOT listen to anyone linked either to the armies of those politicians or the military manufacturers who supply them with weapons of death & destruction … *Do NOT listen to anyone who relays “news” through your television … *Do NOT listen to anyone who preaches callousness or hatred or intolerance or any other form of divisiveness from ANY pulpit … *And do NOT listen to anyone who tells you that we just need to sit back and wait for this shit to just blow over.
My dear friends, DO listen to those who are calling for unity … *DO listen to those who are calling for Peace via Peace-full means … *DO listen to those who are calling for Compassion & Forgiveness … *DO listen to those who are calling for you to open your arms to the downtrodden and open your Hearts to those deemed “different” or even “dangerous” … *DO listen to those who are reminding you that YOU and the people in your community ultimately have the power to change things for the better … And *DO listen to those who are telling you to get off your ass, get out into your neighborhood, and become the Change that we desperately need to see.
So … are you Listening?
Peace to ALL — today & evermore … S
“Some guy once said ‘The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.’ He’s got a point. What scares me most, even more than the thought of terrorists coming to my beloved Bremerton, is the crazy things we humans think and do — and allow — when we’re all riled up with fear and insecurity. That scares me … a lot. But some other guy once said, ‘Fear not.’ And he’s got a point, too. I suppose a lot depends on which guys I listen to.” ~ Rick Seelhoff
