The Problem With You Is Me

It’s time we simply just let go of things that we’ve been taught to know Perhaps not by a mom or dad but by the world, it’s just so sad To trash this group for doing that “ It happens when that side’s at bat” and these folks do or don’t belong but how is being human wrong It’s funny how a color plays that history, if learned, conveys Inherited ideas and blame instead of thinking, what a shame So have your God, your church, your pew and live and let live, why can’t you For wrong is wrong and right is right and many books can shed that light Let’s look inside and just find love from around or from above And maybe you’ll begin to see The problem that I have is me

My go to is always going to be Jesus, the real Jesus not the Hollywood version. What he says and believes is what I say and believe. It often caused him conflict but he never backed down. Nor will I. Still, love holds out hope for the unbeliever and sinner

Words of wisdom Mike, we can't be right all the time and we should be the bigger person and own up to it. We should all show respect to others regardless of colour or religion, life is too short to bear grudges. Tom

It would be a wonderful idea for everyone to take a look inside and find what may be the problem with us. People don't agree on issues but that's not a reason to get testicle about them. lol sorry but it's true.
