Did you immediately think of somebody in your life that should read this? Probably. It’s easy to critique others, but what we really want to be doing is looking closely at ourselves.

It’s good to question our judgements and opinions… recognise that our particular perspective is a reflection of our upbringing, parents, families, teachers, education, geographic location, culture, gender, age, religion, socio-economic status, loves and heart breaks… all our past experiences shape our view of the world. What is ‘right’ is a very slippery concept…hard to get mass consensus on that one. But what we can all agree on is kindness and love. These are not subjective.

A monumental shift would occur if our collective goal was to open our hearts and minds to all others, dropping need to constantly judge what’s right and wrong. Then defending our position so passionately! We don’t have to agree, but we can be curious…and you never know, we might even learn something.

With love
