Justice, love and kindness

Love comes first.

Love in action is kindness.

Love in public is justice.

 

Love.

 

The first guideline is: be kind. Avoid doing harm.

Avoid harm and strive to be kind: to me, myself, and I.

 

But Love does not separate.

If I harm another, I harm myself.

Strive to be kind, to act kindly, to speak kindly, to think of others kindly.

If I allow others to harm me, I harm myself. I cannot allow it.

Nor can I stand by while other people harm other people:

They harm me in their violence,

I harm them – and myself – in silence.

 

So be kind.

Be kind, and take no shit.

 

And yet.

 

Justice is what love looks like in public.

Justice is fair, impartial, and just.

It abides in truth, facts, and reason.

It is ideal and practice, as one.

To aspire to and to do what is right.

 

Justice for any one, any person, group, or people, is not an isolated thing.

It is no closed system, an island unto itself.

True justice is for every man, woman, adult, child, being under our sun.

Justice for women, then, is justice for men. For all humans.

 

Strive for justice: be love in action in public.

Be kind. Be in service to what is right, fair, and true.

Be kind in action.

Be kindness in action.

 

Be kind, and take no shit.
