One wonderful thing about our country is our right and freedom
to speak our minds. This, of course, can also be a double-edged sword as there
are those whose intent is to diminish, manipulate or isolate certain fractions
of society through their words. These past few months as the Presidential election
grew near, we saw an acceleration of verbal lashing from both sides and from
those not associated with either party. It would be wonderful if candidates won
without name calling or dirt digging, but that may be an unrealistic dream on
my part. Politics is not a clean sport.
All this aside, I do believe that we as individuals can rise
above such divisiveness and live our lives on our own terms without bashing
anyone else to do it. The very big trick is to truly subscribe to the old idiom
“live and let live”. Simply put, live your life and let others do the same. This
can be a difficult thing when you have very solid ideas about what is right and
what is wrong. I’m not talking about turning a blind eye to heinous things like
child abusive or overt corporate greed (the list of things could unfortunately
go on and on here), but instead, personal lifestyle choices, religious choices,
style choices, the way we set up our home environment, the type of work we
choose to do…again, the list could go on and on.
What can you do today to start living from this mindset,
to live your life and let others live theirs? What can you allow for others
that you may not choose for yourself? What, if anything, keeps you from
embracing this concept?
Here’s to creating the life of your dreams…

From Over There:
“One does not need to rebel in order to resist
conformity. To rebel is to fight against those forces which are viewed as
threatening. To resist conformity is to simply follow one’s own desires, values
and personal tastes without allowing society’s norms to dissuade through
non-acceptance. To resist conformity is to follow one’s own path regardless if
it has been previously forged, or a new road needs to be created, and to do so
without fighting those who choose another path."
