When we explain why we are hurting, the next word should never be “but”
When employers don’t pay a living wage, they create homelessness
When we call people vicious names, we indict ourselves
When good people stay silent, evil prospers
When evil people yell, it’s important to state the truth softly so people lean in to listen
When we worship religion, we reject God
When we don’t tax the rich, the middle class disappears
When we create a system that prevents medical care, we become a sick society
When we commit violence, we guarantee its survival
When we proliferate war, we destroy our world
When people say they’re going to kill themselves, believe them
When people say they’re telling the truth, fact check
When we pollute, we doom our descendants
When we embrace discrimination, no one is safe
When we hate, we become a people unworthy of redemption
When we’re not prepared to sacrifice, we kill progress
When we refuse to compromise, little of value gets done
When the truth is subjective, it becomes worthless.
You speak the truth!
