21. Thank you. His death ought to make us take pause.
A pause in how we judge and perceive those that look different from us, but also by how we we think people should live their lives.

I chose a long time ago to not look at his life as I do mine. (and in others -- This is the bigger issue here)
If I didn't make that choice -- to live and let live -- as it were, it that would make me no different from what I am seeing from the likes of (as a very current example) Senator Sessions. I cannot judge another persons life.

Thank you SO very much for putting into words what I have not been able to.
