I know todays’ world is scary and confusing for us all. 2020 has shaped up to be a very rough year for a lot of people. Among all of the craziness of the world, there is a lot of negativity and hostility going on. We have forgotten ourselves…
We have forgotten why so many brave men and women before us fought so that we could have our own opinions and rights etc. and we are more judgmental than the people they went up against half of the time. It is our right to be able to have our own thoughts and opinions and styles and outlooks on things. We have been given the knowledge and ability to research and learn things for ourselves.
In todays’ society if you differ from someone else, you are automatically considered wrong. No one allows you to speak your mind and it is not that one side or the other is right or wrong, it is that they have their own opinion.
What we need in this world is the ability to see things from another side, from a different persons perspective, and be open to the possibility of being wrong or at the very least learning something new.
My hope is that one day we we live in a world where this is true. Where journalism is not how you sway the reader into your way of thinking but that you report what is happening and leave it up to them to decide based on the facts in front of them.
Learn to think for yourselves, but be open to change.
Simply,
Miss Shay
