It'll take you no more than 2 seconds to head online and find spewing negativity. The news, the posts we see, the comments we read. It's all there. The internet has become a destructive turf for those that need to hide behind a keyboard and write whatever they need to about somebody. They can criticise, spread filth, and in many cases take things to a totally new degree. A degree that only promotes hate.
Hate breeds more hate.
If you have ever felt it deep inside, you know exactly what I'm talking about. When you harbour hate in your heart, you start hating other things as well. While the web is one out of the many techniques people can deliver hate with, it does serve as a pretty clear example of how things are going in our world today. We have developed a system in which hate has the supreme protection. People have the ability to hide behind a user name which virtually guarantees that the comments themselves will never see the forces of responsibility for its actions.
In face of this almost overwhelming raging river of hate, we need to press on.
Why?
Because we should promote what we love ...rather than lashing out at what we dislike.
I'm really not delusional about the world. I am not that funny guy on the news who is hilariously known in his neighborhood for being Mr. Cheerful literally 24/7. That kind of unbalanced one-way lifestyle is unhealthy for you. I have my horrible days. I have days where I find myself in a conflict between love and hate, acknowledgment and closing off, and these are days when I go to battle. These are days when I am truly reminded of what I believe in. Irrespective of how hard it can be.
The dose the world wants in a continuing drip, is encouragement and support.
Many need to be encouraged for what they are doing, for failing and trying again, for giving a great effort and moving forward. It is not about removing hate from the world, it is about balancing it out with acts of love. The world, like ourselves, can get out of alignment and thrown off once in a while. Others will really start to see the worst of everything because honestly, that's what we are shown. We are continually the subject of the bad stuff. Turn on the television. Automobile crashes, 10 dead in school shooting, riots, unrest in countries all around the planet, large coverups, violations of privacy, oil spills and nuclear meltdowns. With all this, no wonder we've got a dismal view of what is happening.
I suspect that a steady drip of love and inducement can change lives. It significantly changed mine, so why can it not change others?
The ripple effect you can have on the world is miles beyond your comprehension in any way. Hell, I I really don't even know. But I have deep faith that it is happening. You can turn someones day around in a second.
Inspire those around you. You might not agree with the exact way in how they are doing it, but do not step on them for it. People need to learn their way. Often we have got the best intentions when attempting to help others, but at the end, almost everyone has their own path to stroll. Walk with them, don't try to take the rug out from under them.
Encouragement matters.
