A Plea for Compassion
Today is November 3rd, 2020.
It is Election Day and Joe Biden is looking to push Donald Trump out of office. I’m not about to preach my political beliefs, though I do have strong opinions on this stuff. I’m not asking for your opinion and i’m not going to spew about the importance of voting either. I guess this is more of a plea for compassion. Like I said, I have my beliefs about who I think is better suited to represent our country and i’m even willing to respectfully debate my beliefs in a face to face setting for the sake of broadening my own perspective on the matter. When a winner is inevitably announced, I beg that we simply treat each other with respect and lead our lives with compassion and empathy. Let’s not turn to finger pointing or name calling. Accept our new reality and move on with our lives. Losers make excuses for their shortcomings. Winners turn their shortcomings into strengths and build with the limited tools they have. Truth is: there really is no 100% right answer coming from either major party and an entire nation of people are shouting their “personal truths” out into the world, a little louder each time in order to drown out all the folks around them trying to do the same. See the problem?
Take a deep breath. We all have something we can learn from one another. A CEO of a major business has something to learn from the janitor and vice versa, so. just . listen….
