Addicted.

We are addictive as humans, as we get addicted to humans just the same.

I love the way people think and explain their perception of this life, of this world we all encounter. We all want loved and adored and cherished. We react within emotion and whether we receive what we want. We fear abandonment and even isolate, once we face the reality of being alone. There’s a comfort in knowing you can live with your love and only your love.

We also hate with intensity. We become angry at those who feel differently or treat differently, the summation is leaving humans to their own, but we feel the sting of what used to be. We can set fire to others emotions and self-esteem with our words, we have pushed people to kill. It's atrocious. We can make our partners doubt our valuable mindsets, people have even brainwashed individuals to commit crimes and take lives.

The winning solution for these heartaches is simple, CHOOSE BETTER. You have the ability to use your tongue for good or for evil, you choose the mindset of your days, of your relationships, of your work. You choose your reactions to both positive and negative outbursts from others throughout your day. It's not going to be easy, but when was anything easy, worth it?

Learn to value differences and demand acceptance. Be kind to ones who are sensitive, who are cautious, who have built walls around them. These are the ones who have adopted the idea they will always be alone, but we are all family here, we should all be supporting one another, at every point in time.

Learn to treat people as someone who is not a stranger, act as if that is your sister, your brother, your mother or father. Love them with the intensity you share within a personal, platonic relationship or current lover. Be the change you want to see.

I, for one, love people and dislike characteristics of them, all the same. I have to take mild doses of relationships and swirl the rest into social media chat forums. I am a homebody with a family that shares the love I give back. We have to learn to be more tolerant of our neighbors, we have to learn how to love each other, even through those irritable ticks we may have- which by the way, we all do. We all bleed red, we all feel, we all react. Be the change in the world by changing your perception to loving each other, respecting each other, fighting for each other, our rights and demand our voices be heard.

Give love, live the way our creator meant for us to love. Be abundant with your blessings and give charitably. Know your blessings are promised with following his word and know you are readily forgiven and healed. We are of the same population, of the world, we are sisters and brothers of the creator. We are able to manage our feelings effectively and turn the hate in this world to a brighter shine. We just have to try.

Being kind is free and contagious. One person gets their lunch paid for, the customer behind might do the same thing. Life is all about the little moments and the people we share those moments with. I have become great acquaintances with some of the people I cross in my daily routine- gas station clerks, pharmacists, retail cashiers and door greeters- we're all happier when we're all supported, cared for, peppy. We need to live like children again, love all the natural, normal loves of life. Cherish life.
