Two people attracting mass crowds. One goes to hospitals, prisons, old
age homes and more and preaches the gospel of peace and love and courage to
face pressing issues and spiritual promise, speaking with humor and a smile.
The other shouts and harangues with an angry face and preaches division and
ridicule and exclusion and winners over losers and blaming the poor and the
marginalized and promoting ignorance.
The millions in one audience go away humbled and inspired and teary-eyed
and hopeful. Those in the other more angry and vindictive and outraged about
the wrong things for the wrong reasons.
That people are hungry for leadership is clear by the sheer numbers.
When a leader takes the responsibility of leading people to their own best
selves, offering comfort, solace, hope, truth and the courage to face life’s
difficult questions, the world is refreshed. When the power of public voice is
used for mere personal power and feeds people’s distrust and prejudice and
discomfort with thinking, the world is endangered.
Leaders, use your power wisely.
Followers, choose your leaders wisely.

ReplyDeleteMore political stuff? I don't think you can back up with facts any of the things you said about Trump other than he does like winners. "Division?" The Democrats work at dividing this country. Most of the things you write are well written and fun to read. Please stay away from politics.
