I used to think that because I am not
racist and because diversity and kindness really matter
to me, it was enough. I used to think that because I taught our children to love everyone,
no matter how alike or different they were from them, it was enough. I used to think that
because inequality and violence made me emotional and kept me up at night, it was enough.
But it isn't. It is good and right and a place to start. But there is SO MUCH MORE needed.
I will be the first to say, I understand that I absolutely don't understand. But that
doesn't mean I don't need to be a part of the solution. However that looks and
mostly, however my God asks me to. I believe He wants us to be uncomfortable.
Sometimes really, really uncomfortable. Otherwise we can't change.
And I've never known a time that change--TRUE CHANGE--is needed more.
