I think on a day like today, Mr. Sting's post yesterday is worth repeating on my blog:
Today is Martin Luther King Day. Tomorrow we inaugurate a new president. This is a new world.
Doesn't matter if you like the changes, or if you don't. Fact is they are here. You can learn to adapt, or not.
I don't know what color you are, and I don't care. I don't know what religion you are, and I don't care. I don't know what country you was born in, and I don't care. I don't know what political party you belong to, and I don't care. All I care about is the person you are, and the person you strive to be.
Were ever you come from, is not what matters. What matters is who you are, and where you are going. Be a free thinker. Think for yourself. Question everything. Learn something every day. Learn from yourself, learn from others, learn from books. Then take what you learn, and think about it. Does it make sense? If not, make sense of it. Think for yourself.
Learn to think for your self. Be a better person. Be a better friend. This world is changing. Change with it. Change for the better.
We are all in this world together. Let's behave like it.
