And what is this society exactly and how is it responsible for me and how am I responsible for it? I prefer to look at segments of society, or families, or even my own individual life or that of others and ask: "What is being done RIGHT here?" I find that so much more helpful and encouraging than fixing my attention on the wrong. torthĂșilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07738803052167620020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5725106142359702200.post-55704888674849793362016-10-13T02:59:55.196+13:002016-10-13T02:59:55.196+13:00Well said.

Regardless, I refuse to see it for all the reasons you state. Trumps recorded commentary for Access Hollywood in 2005 illustrates this even more. <br /><br />We are all more than the color of our skin, our religious beliefs and even our gender. In fact, these things add to who we are; we are not limited by them. And it's time our leaders embrace and promote that.
