I think we ALL stand UNITED with Paris after the recent terrorist attacks there. The scale and number of locations hit were definitely a shock to all of us. Why is there such hatred and anger in the world that manifests itself into such heinous acts of violence?
I've been trying to teach my oldest nephew (who is 10) that if we all had more respect, understand and humanity for one another much of the violence in the world would be diminished. He agreed. But, it's always easier said than done. Bottom line is...we're ALL human beings. Everything else just gets in the way...gender, sex, religion, cultures, etc...it's what makes us all different, special and unique, but also tears us a part because we haven't learned to appreciate and respect one another FOR our differences. How do we make that mental shift in a broader, more meaningful way? In a way that will change the world we live in today...and all the days that follow.
We all process these kinds of violence differently (based on our past experiences and knowledge), but the majority of us have that light of humanity in us that knows this cannot be tolerated and that we must all stand together to stand up to the violence. We are strong...TOGETHER! We are brave...and UNITED!! We are human...full of LOVE!!!
Praying for Paris!!! Praying for you! Praying for all of humanity!
