Do You or Do You?

What do You do?

Do You champion congruency?

Do You fight against the lies with honesty?

Do You admit to being imperfect and even at fault?

Do You take criticism, constructive or not, with a grain of salt?

Do You challenge Your own internal beliefs?

Or do You retaliate against others, giving them grief?

Do You reflect upon Your own personal creeds?

Or do You act selfishly power-hungry, asserting Your greed?

Do Your answer for Your own words?

Or do You try to retract them, as if they were never read or heard?

Do You crave for concord and unity?

Or Do You cause calamitous cataclysms in communities?

Do You respect when other people say "No?"

Or Do You continue on, refusing to let go?

Do You challenge selective outrage's cancel culture?

Or Do You take advantage of generosity, like a gluttonous vulture?

Do You respect and uphold boundaries healthily?

Or when confronted, do You try to countermand stealthily?

Yes, we're all not perfect. Don't You C?

It's difficult "Championing Congruency."
