There Is No Color To a Soul

We have harbored distrust for many generations It’s time for inclusion, respect in all nations We must not judge color, or traditions, or dress We must accept differences, should we expect less? A slip of the tongue, perhaps a kind word mislaid Forgiveness must come if ever peace can be made As you travel through life trying to find your place You are but one single breath in this human race. No matter the laws, or massive movements to heed We must improve ourselves, one by one to succeed To build a world full of love, we must look within Raise our hands in prayer, and let healing begin. Face each other eye to eye, let this be your goal… See the human inside…there’s no color to a soul!

within the Soul Is His Grace....Blessed is he who judges not by the face....the content of one's character....is all that can build barriers....and i can only start with me....i accept all for the people that they be....because it is 2000, 10, and 8....there is no reason for any to hate....Beautiful and powerful message betty....;)
