I wonder what would happen if we learned to love others as we love ourselves.
If we didn’t constantly remark, “That’s their life. They have to make their own decisions.”
If we had in mind that our words could change others for the better, leave them happy and whole, together.
And what if we took a stand, a dare even, to help those who couldn’t help themselves, didn’t know how to help themselves?
What would this world look like?
Maybe less bitterness and pain, anger, sickness and hate
Perhaps free from the need to take a place or a pill or have a procedure peddled to us that risk our health, our very lives, and fatten the peddlers’ pockets

What if….?

Think about that.
Act about that, in your own God-given way.
