It is easy to become disheartened, sad and overwhelmed with despair with the recent news. Riots. Violence. Unspeakable acts of cruelty and evil.
These "protestors" may say they are challenging the Government and police but in reality, they are only bringing financial ruin and heartbreak to their neighbours - the people who have sold them milk and their newspaper for the last 10 years. Moreso they are insulting the heroic men and women of our Armed Forces who have fought so bravely for our freedom and continue to do so.
But I think if we give in to the heartbreak, it's one small victory to them. There have sadly been bigger wars with less hope and yet we have overcome. We will again.
You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.
Mahatma Gandhi
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Martin Luther King Jr.
