Bonnie Jean Feldkamp in dailyherald: Renewed contact with an estranged friend reminds me there's hope in 2023
I got an unexpected Facebook message from someone I had unfriended a couple of years back. We disagree on politics, and I just could not handle all the hateful rhetoric in their feed. his person hopes we can be friends again."I am more for human beings than for politicians. I've had enough of them," they wrote. I agreed. I am pro-kindness and pro-humanity.
A world full of writers but no engineers, nurses, lawyers or fry cooks would not be a productive or collaborative world. Our differences are important. Our individual contributions are important. Our diverse experiences inform our differing perspectives. We need to be open to productive discourse with the objective of contributing solutions to community issues. But Americans seem to have devolved into divisive us-versus-them identity camps that follow extreme political rhetoric.
This outreach and inclusion start at home, just like everything else. If you value what happens in your community then behave as if you do. They only serve to fuel your rage and foster your vitriol for the"other side."Learn what your local community needs and what they are doing to address those issues. Find your seat at the table.
