What is the best way to serve the common good? Is it not to be kind in word, thought and deed? If one can keep that thought foremost, all else will necessarily fall into place behind it. I preach tolerance of others and recognition of differences and celebration of the same. For if we were all made in the same mold life would be boring indeed. Respect for all is the basis of the Golden Rule, "Do you unto others as you would have them do unto you". If you want respect, you must first respect yourself and others.

If you don't care for reality, just wait a while; another will be along shortly. --A Rose
