JUST ONE MORE ... stand.
It's as regular around here as turning the page of the calendar. If it's a new month (and it is!), then it's time for a new challenge -- a challenge that somehow relates to my concept of embracing incremental change in order to empower folks (or just me) to stay positive and solution-focused in a day and age where problems often seem insurmountable, control often seems out of reach and apathy often seems to be running rampant.
Nowadays, there's a lot going on out there in the world ... and a lot of people with opinions ... and there's maybe even some fatigue setting in at the beginning of what may be a marathon of "staying woke". Heck, I'm even starting to see a lot more whining about the people being accused of whining in the first place.
This month, let's stay focused on not letting others "stand-shame" those who are speaking their minds, and let's rally for each of us to identify that in which we strongly believe and to communicate why we believe that way.
Take a stand how best fits you. Call a representative. Forward information others may find helpful. March if it suits you. Donate to those who are doing the hard work out on the frontlines. Research. Politely interact with others who may not have the same views as you do. Or do something even bigger as circumstances allow and as inspiration dictates.
Now is the time to take just one more ... stand.
