A bit of Good News … (06/04/16)
(or “The very best of Hair Days”)
“Going to Hell in a hand basket” is a phrase I’ve heard quite a bit these last few days — and for seemingly good reason … Rampant animal cruelty (a.k.a. “meat” & “milk”), America’s next President (currently a choice between a bigoted narcissist and a war-mongering sociopath), and the world’s poor fighting amongst themselves (instead of focusing their discontent on those who are truly responsible for their pain) are all daunting challenges looming on humanity’s next horizon … Heck, sometimes it really does feel like a good hair day is all we’ve got going for us.
Of course, the only thing we TRULY have going us is the thing we ALWAYS have going for us — the ability we have every day to make Life more Peace-full.
*… the ability to go vegan (and start living a life consistently based in Compassion); even the ability to protest loudly for animal rights — to boldly stand up for Justice and help stop the madness …
*… the ability to reach out to conservatives & liberals alike and remind them that there are no more political solutions for problems caused by politics in the first place; even the ability to join forces with our neighbors and start rebuilding our communities — making them self-sustainable havens of Health & Caring …
*… the ability to reach out to all strangers with a smile of Kindness; even the ability to reach out to the downtrodden — the poor, the hungry, the homeless, the fearful — with random acts of Respect-filled Kindness.
THIS is what I call “Love”, my Friends, and THIS is why I still get up every morning … THIS is the only revolution worth fighting and it is the only revolution that will ever ultimately succeed.
In conclusion, good hair days simply aren’t enough, my Friends …
We’ve got to WAKE UP and get out there and CARE!
