Revolution in Words

Understand what you are feeling - seems as though so much is not, nor can not be achieved when thoughts are being held back by prejudice, radical religious conservative thinking. What would a Revolution accomplish, would it set us back to the civil war mentality, ownership of human life, which includes all of the ramifications, starting over from hate;  killing so many people and causing more heartache and suffering, ingraining prejudice even further?

We need to learn to sit down and talk logically with one another, without the turmoil of emotion, letting go of that hate by learning to understand what it means to accept and forgive, putting love in your heart for one another. You can say the words, acceptance and forgiveness, but it means nothing unless you can face that other person and learn how to talk your differences through; erasing the negative that was learned from past mistakes and failures...replacing them with the new is difficult... but possible.

I have no concrete answers, other than I voice my thoughts to you when I stand up and speak out, or petition and fight for these rights for all of us; not to destroy your words, but simply to start the discussion rolling with a base, a foundation of opinion...I'm both liberal and conservative, I'm passionate and I'm passive. I get sick of the people in politics who try to take away another’s independance, another's right to live and let live, another’s right to love and be loved.  

Like so many, I get sick of the people who say there is nothing we can do to fight back for our rights, having no say and no choice in the matter...But we DO have a choice!  Maybe, it starts out as a child’s voice, but it will grow with time...Speak those words - logical, clear words - speaking out for what we believe. Passivity, alone, takes us nowhere. Conservatives and Liberals are equally passionate when it comes to demonstrating what they believe and want, so it's a double edge sword in dealing with the outspoken.  Take a deep breath, take your time, and think before you speak, refraining from the attack and hurtful words.

The logic is in the Approach. The angry are more than willing to do battle in a revolution, therefore it proves a no point  fight in futility for both sides. Frustration and depression can come to all of us, but the key is to not let it get you down, you keep fighting back with civility in both actions and words...

A friend of mine, in North Carolina, marches and stands with her kids alongside the hundreds of people speaking out for what they believe, showing a silent yet strong voice, a silent yet loud voice. In these cases actions speak louder than words...but with sane and logic, these words get out without violence.  

There are so many ways to be heard, just think first and be aware of the ideology of what freedom of speech means to you - Freedom behind a voice can be spoken, presented or written.  Do not be afraid of your constitutional rights.
