Love is an action. To not love is INaction.

Who defines what "action" is appropriate?
Who would define what "inaction" is?
What if your "action" feels hurtful to some people? Do you plow ahead, even if you have been requested not too? Maybe you could tread lightly, leading more by example? Just a thought....
Sometimes I guess it is much easier to talk the talk, then walk the walk
Here is to hoping that we are all able to begin walking the walk. It is sure to be a tough path for everyone, me included

. But worth it, for everyone!!!!
It will seem easier at times to just stay where you are on the path and "shout" at the people you feel are behind you, but that wont work for some, dare I say most. Some people who feel that they are being shouted at, just shut down. They stop walking the path altogether, you will have lost them. Now that would be really sad.
How about helping that person by quietly walking side by side, hand in hand and whispering encouragement? And if your friends complain about what you are doing is wrong, that the person you are helping isn't deserving of your help...... well then maybe you can be strong enough in your beliefs to continue to help that person in the way they need to be helped, the way they can "hear" it.
Maybe you will be strong enough to say EVERYONE MATTERS, and better yet, maybe you could even believe it...
It is my opinion when people talk about other people, even in the name of their beliefs, they are just talking the talk. I can't believe that anyone, let alone any higher power, embraces hypocrisy. Why do we?
