SOCIAL UNREST: Tolerance needed

| January 21, 2024 1:00 AM

In light of all the racial divide in the world today, social unrest and lack of understanding in our communities of the vast differences we all have as to religion, social interaction and normal day to day activities dealing with so many folks of color, religious preference, age, and all that goes with a diverse society, it is no wonder that we have so many folks that are so prejudiced that they have no room in their life for tolerance.

We can all have our thoughts on a world that is free from prejudice and a world where we can all live in harmony, but this is not reality. If we can all take a deep breath and look upon our neighbors as equals and with their own desires to have a life with hope and promise without being analyzed for their color, religious or moral thoughts, the world would be a better place. 

Whether you believe in evolution, or any thoughts about religion. We are all one people and we are all in this together to make the best of our situation, although not always fair, we can still thrive and exist in this world if we can only be tolerant and treat us all as equal in this changing  and sometimes uncertain world we live in. Our creator did the best that could be done, and now it is up to us to carry on and make this world a better place for all to live in with harmony and peace.
