What am I?
Am I democrat, a liberal, a conservative, a moderate? What am I for? Against? What issues do I stand for? Here's a quote from a book I just read that I loved.
"Don't choose issues, choose to love people, and the issues will choose you."
It's easy to form opinions on different issues and what should be done abou them from the comfort of an office or a living room. When you decide to love people, things become clearer and muddier at the same time. Simple, but not easy. Love all people, and see what issues float to the surface.
Here's one that's rising
Any religion which professes to be concerned with the souls of men and is not concerned with the slums that damn them, the economic conditions that strangle them, and the social conditions that cripple them, is a moribound religion awaiting burial.
-Martin Luther King Jr.
