There is confusion in society after a year of pandemic limitation and strife. The traditions and lifeways we counted on have changed dramatically. The news is filled with stories of many who are advocating for change in multiple ways. How do we find consistency, strength, and direction amongst this mess?
We can lead ourselves forward with a few simple questions:
- Do the actions benefit us and the greater society?
- Are the actions in line with the modern world we live in, and the current problems we face?
- Is this advocacy well thought out, positive, and promising?
- Is the work urgent or can it wait?
There are many in society today working backwards with outdated, oppressive supremacist attitudes and ideas that hold us back as a people--these individuals are wholly focused on protecting their personal wealth, power, privilege, and pleasure. These are evil Hitler-like folk that harm society--we have to work against their ignorant, self-serving ways in every way possible. They do us no good.
We have to keep our eyes on what is positive and good for our own lives and the lives of everyone in society--that is the direction we must travel.
