It’s a choice we can make at any point

What if we choose to accept others as who they are?

What if we choose to seek to find the good in them, not the bad?

What if we choose to understand and hear them first?

What if we choose not to evaluate them based on a judgement?

Perhaps the world would be different, it’s a choice we can make at any point.

Starts with me

Hate…starts with me
Anger…starts with me
Fear…starts with me
Jealousy…starts with me
Judgement…starts with me
Not the other

Kindness…starts with me
Love…starts with me
Empathy…starts with me
Compassion…starts with me
Joy…starts with me
Not the other

I can love first
I can understand first
I can listen first
I can hug first
I can share my light first
It starts with me
Not the other
