All lives matter
As we enter into this critical time of political decisions and social concerns, it is crucial that we remember we are one nation. Whether you believe this "One nation" is "under God" or not, we are still one nation, and as such we need to show a unified front to the world. The tragedies of humanity in our country we must face as a nation. #alllivesmatter #Americanlivesmatter These should be our hashtags. When we separate ourselves from one another through terminology we enforce and support divisiveness. Continually I've seen it stated that love is the answer. It reminded me that I often say how I love one of my family members because they are a member of my family, but I don't have to like them. We are a family of Americans. We are from all different backgrounds. We are many colors. We are many sizes and shapes. We live different lives. What we share is our humanity and our country. So to my fellow Americans I wish you peace, hope, health, love, and joy. May our hearts and minds be healed and at peace as we face our challenges together.
