#love instead

We look at one another differently, we feel differently, we think differently, we love differently, and we’re gridlocked in our beliefs. It feels that the differences are numerous and seemingly insurmountable. But are they?

I think I may have a small solution in the interim. So we all eat. And that very important fact, is a part of the human experience. I’m pretty sure, we feel hungry, and at the very least a lot of us require sustenance, via food. And I think, unless we have super strong opinions about food, which I know people do, it’s usually a topic that brings people together, as opposed to being a point of contention. (With the exception of the age old fight between Chicago and New York about who has the best pizza and hot dogs. I will clear that up now…it’s Chicago.)

Now that that “hot button” topic has been settled, I feel that sharing love is easy when hypothetical “you” discusses food. A lot of people have favorite kinds of food, and it usually involves smiling and laughing and knowing where the best kind of “some kind of food or another” is, or how you or someone you are related to and/or know makes the best kind of it.

So, instead of discussing our differences in a heated debate, like tomorrow, why don’t we talk about pasta? Or French fries: curly vs. steak vs. sticks? Or where the best bakery is for the best pastries, and when we can get together to have a taste test?

I truly believe THAT, will change the world, and make it a better, and not only palatable, but definitely a more amicable and delicious place to be. 👍🤷‍♀️🤣

I have dreamed of Empty Tunnels.

There was no snake within them.

I placed potato hearts In a big bag which would not fit.

The only way they would transport was if I too were sent.

I have dreamed of Empty Tunnels

and of the cold I must face,

for years.

We must send love.

For the tunnel was not empty,

Can people please remember that Taylor Swift is one person and human being? Why do people think its okay to spew so much hate? She may be a public figure but shut up and think about how you would feel if hoards of people were saying vile things about you and picking a part every aspect of YOUR life?
