Taking a stand


Guess what I learned to do? think hard, look at this photo? I learned to use the clone tool in procreate and now I have Four to Follow, picking up poop. 
Ha ha ha ha

My neighbors are African Americans, I am white, It was Willie who knocked on my door at 4 am to find out if we were ok after the horror of Hurricane Milton, it was Willie who brought us a bag of ice the next day. 

Our sliding glass door quit sliding, it was beyond what Bob could do.

The man who repaired our door was Hispanic, with broken English, 

the roofers that put on our new roof were Hispanic, 3 spoke English 2 did not, 

the friendliest and most helpful employees at our Wal-Mart are speaking English as their 2nd language or unable to talk to me in English. They are happy to work there and always kind and friendly. 

I believe that every human on this planet is the same if you remove the color of the skin. And whether they are good or bad, it has nothing to do with the color of their skin or which country they were born in. 

During the last year I have been trying to form the habit of asking God if he approves of what I am about to do. How I treat Bob, in his illness. Its hard.  I do know He wants us do all things that are pleasing to Him, and to do to others, only what we want done to ourselves... 
I fear our beloved USA has lost the ability to love others, do unto others what God will be pleased with and and certainly 

 (Matthew 7:12): "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you.

It's a pack of Beaus. Very cool.
Yes, we all bleed the same color. And a persons skin or nationality has nothing to do with how good or bad they are.
These days there is far too much hate in the world. We've become far too divided especially in a political sense.
