Re-membering real Family Values … (06/14/17)
Newsflash: If you are looking for Family Values that are worth emulating, the last place you will hear them is from the mouth of a politician, and one of the last places you will ever see them in action is in a dogma-deluded church … For if you really want to rediscover true Family Values — if you really want to remember what real Family looks like, you will have to go where real Family is being LIVED …
*You will have to go to the shelters that house abandoned animals or homeless humans … *You will have to go to the streets where the Kind are sitting down with the downtrodden … *You will have to go to the slaughterhouses where the marginalized are protesting on behalf of the murdered … *You will have to go to the hospitals where strangers are wholeheartedly Caring for the ill and the injured and the dead and the dying.
And once you go to any one of these havens of hospice and witness others BEING Family, you can then truly learn what Family Values really mean — by reaching out to help them do the same.
Amen … Let it be so.
