I've lived my life believing if you can't see the good in a person, then either look closer, or step away; the choice is yours. But in today's world some people insist they see what isn't there, to them, the truth is never absolute. In their alternative reality facts are flexible, and thus, easily bent to conform to any twisted ideology. Democracy exposes our weakness and hints at our strengths. At times, meaningful change can seem highly improbable but not impossible! Stop tripping over a mountain of no's, don't be afraid to say yes to reason and compromise. Remember, evil disguised as good is still evil, you need only lift its mask, to recognize its face.

Beautiful, straight, direct, clear and with an outstanding message. Now people have microscopic opinions about others, some will assume, make their assumption factual and then go ahead to use it in judging one. It's such a shame and so unfortunate. May God help us! What a great work here.

Interesting work. There is much political and social unrest right now. I hope that everyone will go home and work on a local level in meetings with officials in government departments to work out ways that we can change to work better with all of our citizens. It can be done if we only work at it. Sara
