“A camera is a tool for learning how to see without a camera.” - Dorothea Lange
I get so discouraged sometimes from the pervasive divisiveness in our society. People so often seem to look at other people as obstacles...
Other cars going too slowly, too many others on the sidewalk or in the stores, wearing masks to slow the spread of the pandemic virus (the virus is real) or not wearing masks because of personal freedom (it's a conspiracy), vaccinations or no vaccinations, too much traffic, not enough workers, impatience at the restaurant or in line at the gas station or when waiting for a government service. Not to mention how everything is political nowadays. The list of ways other people bother us is seemingly endless. And yet, as I wrote in my post on July 24, 2021...
Other people aren’t problems; they’re fellow people with their own thoughts, fears, and concerns trying to live their lives. Just like you are. So make way just a bit. A little consideration goes a long way.
You never know what someone else is going through and some patience and understanding from you could make all the difference. We don’t have to agree on everything to be kind to each other.
So please have a great day, my friends. And may you find peace and happiness by sharing love, the ultimate renewable resource.
