No where near VFF land but after 14 years I have reached 20 grand. I thought about it for a while because I wanted to make it worth something more than a debate. Never dreamed we would be where we are as a nation and world. But we are. So, here are some words written by someone much smarter than me, that we can all live by. And this world would be an even better place.
Go Vols!!!!
Just because we are equal,
Does not mean we are the same;
We do not have to be twins to be the same,
To be brother; to be sisters.
Relax and Enjoy the differences around you!
Be Yourself! A Man can not be comfortable
without his own approval.
E Pluribus Unum;
From Many One.
Be Kind! Say thanks! Give Credit! Empathize.
Read; Listen; Observe.
To Listen is to learn,
About yourself;
And Others
Don’t be afraid to say,
“Help me Understand”
“I know how you feel”
“What can I do to help?”
Each of us Must be the change we want in the World.
Practice patience,
With yourself,
With others.
Practice Awareness
With yourself
With others
Practice makes Perfect!
Laugh,
At yourself;
Not at others.
Angels can fly because they take themselves lightly!
As we let our own light shine,
We allow others to do the same.
Share your delight with the world.
We may have come over on different ships,
But
We are all in the same boat now!
Do the RIGHT THING!
Remember:
What it feels like to be different.
Never:
Pre-judge
Put people in boxes
Lower you standards!
Don’t:
Hold back compliments,
Accept responsibility for making relationships work!
“Judge people by the content of their character,
Not by the color of their skin.”
Everyone sometimes feels;
Confused, left out, afraid.
Be true to yourself,
To your values,
Stretch your cultural comfort zone.
Reach out
Observe
Ask
Look, for what we share.
