First, I want to wish EVERYONE a Happy and Blessed Easter Sunday. Even my Muslim friends, my Jewish friends, my LBGT friends, my non-believing friends, to ALL my friends and family, no matter what color or belief...Happy Easter.
Having said that, I would like everyone to 'Agree to Disagree'. Don't read this with a confused look on your face. You know we all have our opinions and believes, whether it be about religion, or politics, or whatever it may be, we all have our own views. When people get really angry because someone disagrees with their view, that is called CONFLICT, and wars have started over different views. The Middle East has suffered wars for centuries over differences in views about religion. That is crazy! Religion is the ONE THING everyone should respect about other peoples views. You don't have to believe in their view, but you should respect their view and DON'T disrespect it because they don't see things like you. The same can be said about politics, cars, the way people dress, sports teams or anything else. Debate it, YES. Argue NO! AGREE TO DISAGREE.
On this very high holy day in the Christian community, I ask you ALL to come to together and united to stop this pandemic by wearing masks, get vaccinated and keep practicing social distancing until this thing is dead. Listen to the medical experts and do what they tell us, not some theory person who says drink bleach or 'They are killing our rights by demanding us to wear masks'. Does 500,000 dead from Covid in the United States ring a bell? It is real people, not fake news.
When I started this blog years ago, it was intended to share photos of our trips around the world because a number of people wanted to see them. Then Covid hit and our travels ended. I never intended the blog to become a 'soapbox'. But if I reach one person and their eyes open to things around us all, it's been successful. Plus, it has helped my typing skills. 😊
So, debate your views all you want, but keep it calm and factual. Do your homework, find out the true facts, but above all ... respect the other person's opinions, just agree to disagree and part ways without conflict. If we all can do that, it would make this Easter an even great day than it is.
I love you all, whether or not you agree with me. And Jesus does too.
