Do you really have to look to another person to lead you? MLK, Obama, some mouth on the news, the internet and media will tell you who to follow. Where are you on any of this? Where is your heart?
C'mon we all know what is right. I don't buy for one second that you blame your lot in life on anyone else. Really?
Beware of the Fb nemes, posts that tell part of the story and get your adrenaline pumping. We seem to be in a culture that does a lot of that.
There is a writer for a local newspaper, the SMN. One writer never tells the whole story. Who, what, where, how and why. Basic tenets of journalism.
Most recently, she headlined a story about a local tribe who was not going to fund senior citizen utility bills. The headliner was heart wrenching. I even wrote her to suggest that she do a full interview and get to the real story. (they are other funding stories to take care of them). Have called her in the past telling her to do the WHOLE story, too. I suppose the editor doesn't care much. Nor does the readership. Apparently. Anyway, they lost my following.
Stand up. Speak out. Love from your heart. You don't have to like the behaviors of others. You do have to be kind about it.
Be your own self leader. Now. Our survival demands it.
