Love

What would you change about modern society?

This is not a political post. I’ve watched several documentaries about Robert F. Kennedy. Something that always resonated with me was something he said in his campaign speech in Indianapolis after Rev. Martin Luther King Jr was assassinated. He said, “What we need in the United States is not division; what we need in the United States is not hatred; what we need in the United States is not violence and lawlessness, but is love, and wisdom, and compassion toward one another; and a feeling of justice toward those who still suffer within our country, whether they be white or whether they be black.” That was in 1968 but the same is true for today. We still need love, wisdom and compassion for one another and not racism, hatred, or violence. It’s that simple.

One thought on “Love”

  1. Amen!
    I’m supposed to leave it at that but yes, I look back to quotes from Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King about love and compassion and wish for a world that looks to help one another instead of saying “I have mine, go away”
