Fighting the good fight

Who am I?

3/30/2019

 
Have you ever thought to yourself "Why am I who I am?"
Think about it when you look at someone who you think is different.
Because one little sperm out of millions was able to find one tiny egg (which could have been 2 or 3), you became you.
The same goes for all of us, because we all became us in the same way.
 Now, change any tiny fraction of what I just said and you are no longer you. You are a completely different person.
People born into poverty don't choose to, it just happens.
People born into wealth don't choose to, it just happens.
None of us has any choice as to where or how we are born.
We do have the choice of how we live our lives after we are born!
Consider this when you decide to hate another because someone told you to.
If you are wealthy, you look down on others with hatred and suspicion!
If you are poor, you look up at others with hatred and suspicion!
Yet we are all basically the same except for the provenance of our birth. Think about that the next time you decide to down someone else and maybe somehow we can find common ground!
Peace out, all. I'm going to try to somehow get to sleep this morning, before the rooster crows!

    I am a 70 year young soul with the grit and stamina of a 40 year old, who has much to contribute before I decide to leave this world.
    I believe in equal rights for all. I am no better or worse than you unless you or I prove otherwise.
    You do not have the right to determine my life any more than I have the right to determine yours.
    Your beliefs are your beliefs, mine are mine. If they happen to coincide, wonderful!
    If not, let's talk about it!
    We can make this world a better place,
    but it will take all of us working together!
