The World We Pass On...

Good morning! It's a lovely beginning to a spring day. The house is cool with the ocean's breeze sneaking in through the window screen of Grandpoppy's office. The Pacific Ocean's zephyr blows an added sweet quality to the moist salty perfume wafting idly over the office window box of trailing red petunia's.

In the news today, Chelsea Clinton rightfully chastised Kathy Griffin's offensive video about Trump.

While we may not agree with someone's politics, there are limits to the right of free speech and its expression, that has boundaries governing all of us. The moral and ethical boundary, exists separately from legalized statutes observed and enforced in courts of law. This boundary originates from a deeply private and personally religious root, nurtured from the garden of our spirit's soul. Most of mankind's problems, stem from the long-neglected and untended gardens, living in our souls.

The one simple governing principle is an ancient tenet that guides our humanity. It seems, we live in such a fast-paced and competitive world today, selfishly composed of me, me, me... that all the old-fashioned ideas are obsolete and forgotten. When we look at kindness on a grand world scale, it is still evident that we need a world, where kindness matters. Kindness is not weakness. It is the human quality that changes the world, one person at a time. 

When we forget this principle, we doom ourselves. It is the simplest and most important law of mankind, we cannot afford to forget, for the good of civilization. It is the principle of the "Golden Rule", that makes a world we all want to live in.
