I hear about all the shootings, look around  at all the fear and distrust, and want to crawl into a hole and stay there for a while, until this all gets sorted out. But here’s the thing – this isn’t going to fix itself. I don’t know that any one person knows everything it’s going to take to make this better. There are some ideas out there though, and a lot of us can get together and do what we can do to start making this better. I think that this is going to continue until we all see and behave as if we are all one, because we are. When we all understand that it is not some ‘other’ that we are hurting, but rather it is us, then we have a chance. So my thought is to start acting on this in whatever small way you can. If all you can do today is to smile at someone who doesn’t look like you, then do it – it’s a start. A lot of small things can turn into a big thing. What can you do?
