I think we all could use more compassion in this day and age.
Don't stop fighting for what you believe in, but don't let the bad shit in the world get to you.
Don't stop providing a voice for the voiceless, but be a voice of empowerment and hope, not of fear and hatred.
Don't stop seeing the world for what it can be, but accept that not everything is in one person's control-far from it.
And for humanity's sake, be compassionate and empathetic. Listen those in your lives who you may not have listened to in the past, for whatever reason. That doesn't mean you have to agree with them, of course, but try to see things from their perspective.
We're all in this together, Democrats, progressives, and liberals. I know we don't always agree, but for the love of everything beautiful....we gotta stick together. When we unite in working together, when we stand up for what we believe in, and when we show the world that we mean what we believe, and
live it...well, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
It's up to us.
Sincerely,
A Young Democrat from California
