It’s like the entire culture has lost all impulse control. People go right for the biggest judgement, quick snarky comment, dumbest edit and meanest possible take on things. All this when depth and reflection, mercy and patience are the characteristics we need more than anything.

Fear will do that. So let us offer patience and mercy to those who need it, while recognizing we're ALL at risk of falling prey to fear in certain moments. It toggles within all of us, all the time.

I agree with you. It's so disrespectful that some people are judgemental.

Every classroom had the class clown or disruptor. Eventually we learned to tune them out or miss out on our education. As adults we need to relearn that skill.

I appreciate how you maintain such humanity in the midst of the nutty whirlwind of social media. We differ on policy, and I still love this about you. It invites me to listen to what you have to say and to really see you. Thank you.
