You sure haven’t lost it Pam….you hit the nail smack on the head! Funny how we’re apparently embarrassed to show fear, but it doesn’t phase us to turn it into hatred and show that to everyone! As a society in general, we are a bunch of knuckleheads!

Without a doubt. I’ve been re-reading some of my favorite philosophers. Divisiveness is the fuel of hate and it is spreading faster than any pandemic. Love, acceptance and uniting with our neighbors, regardless of how far away they may be. After all, we share this planet or we destroy it.

There is always something different. Because anything not ‘me’ falls into that fearful chasm. And all too easily it changes from different to fear, blame, and hate.

Hatred is a strong emotion, same as anger. Both are to hide your vulnerability. Strength comes from every other emotion.
