“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
If we take the refusal to hate one step further, is it possible to find something to love, or at least like, about every person? I believe it is possible. And the honest effort is a worthy one moving us in the direction of peace and understanding. It can begin with communication, which means listening with the goal to understand, and speaking with respect, from our hearts. It is not always easy. But it is possible.

Bonsoir JOANA MARTIN LUTHER KING était un grand homme de paix
Tiens,tiens
Mais que fais-je par ici
Me serais-je perdu
Mais non ça y est je me rappelle
Je venais te dire bonsoir
Te souhaiter une belle soirée
Après une petite halte chez toi
Je vais continuer mon trajet
Je te fais une bise d’amitié

Some wonderful words. What if…….? I believe that most people agree with these sentiments. But all it takes is for one or two hate filled politicians to poison a small minority and for the media to give them air time and the majority have to suffer.

That’s why I don’t watch the drama promoting mainstream media much anymore. I try to be selective, but it’s hard to avoid the blatant negativity. I keep thinking people are going to get tired of this and support a more balanced network or publication. There is certainly a niche for something more positive.

Reblogged this on Anything is Possible! and commented:
Revisiting this post from last year in honor of Martin Luther King. Today I marched in the MLK parade with the Grandmother’s for Peace. There were only five of us, but it felt great!
