Let’s take our leader, Donald J.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He grabs pussy. We allow it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let’s take another leader, …<\/p>\n\n\n\n
OK there are a couple who are thinking. Ahern. Merkel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But too many megalomaniacs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And we allow it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When did we stop thinking?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When did we stop caring?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When did we give up?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s not about them. It’s about all of us. It’s about who we are, who we might be, who we might have been? That sounds final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is there time to change? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maybe it’s just that we’re not being who we want to be. Maybe we could be who we want to be. More than who we are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Change while we can. Change while you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Take a breath, and take a step in the right direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
