If the media, the pundits, the columnists, the podcasters, leaders at all levels, and each of us talked of the prevailing and abundant goodness in our midst instead of any one personality or partisan politics, our country would feel much differently. Let’s speak of what’s working, what we want to see more of, what’s good, for that which we have gratitude, and for the better nature of our angels!
It’s not about overcoming partisan politics, divisive personalities, or even evil. It’s about recognizing the amazing gifts we have. Goodness, when acknowledged, will expand and crowd out what we don’t want. Watch “The Grinch” this season. The (people) in “Whoville” were unaffected by The Grinch – their focus was entirely on the love and gifts in each other.
Given the actual upward trends of enhanced goodness, one might be able to make the case that we are quivering on the brink of an amazing and enthralling epoch of social readjustment, moral quickening, and spiritual enlightenment. Pretty simple and right in our grasp.
