A great quote, and a reminder that even if I don't get caught up in senseless arguments, I should be showing love to those who are in such obvious pain by praying for them, at the very least. |
comprehend the depth of pain that moves
a man to spew forth rancid venom and for what?
A "like" on Facebook? Hearty "LOL" in
comments by some others who are hurting
too? Such bitterness, no...fear, that's masquerading
as enlightened thinking makes me sad.
And grateful for the voices who can reason,
who are light and pleasant and respectful,
who can find the silliness in all the golden
calves without the need to slander
those who tend the stalls
in love and genuine devotion.
Resolved: avoid the arguments one
wouldn't bring up at the table while one's
family is gathered there, in peace.
family is gathered there, in peace.
