#AllLivesMatter

#AllLivesMatter ! A simple phrase that if we,everyone, take head to this and concentrate on this single phrase, we can change the world. Is it going to happen overnight? NO! When to build a home, you have to dig a hole to start the foundation. Continually doing the same digging in a pattern until a ditch is formed for the foundation. Next is Concrete for the foundation. You have to have re-bar in the concrete to help the concrete hold together and strengthen it. Once those things are done, the foundation will hold what is built on it. The stronger the foundation, the better the home will be and the longer it will last. No, this isn't a class on building a home. But, what you willl see is how this applies to #AllLivesMatter.

If we as a society pick and choose what we each believe in and want to support it is a good thing. There are #BlackLivesMatter , #CopsLivesMatter , #ChildrensLivesMatter . And if we choose one of them then we start dividing ourselves. Once the division starts, that is when you start having opinions and beleifs which start differences. Once differences come into play you are opening up for argument, and eventually that explodes into full blown fighting. Lets put this into prospective as a foundation. If #AllLivesMatter then we need to start that foundation. Taking all the other #LivesMatters and combining them would make a good foundation. Each digging for the soul purpose of making one single foundation with each of the other groups each being the footer and the re-bar. If we come together it works as one solid foundation. Apart, we only have foundations for rooms. Now, I don't know about you, but I have never went to buy a ROOM! I want a HOUSE! Yes, I know we can build a room, but a house will be more appealing, and get more attention. We do need each of the beliefs that our individual cause is important---that is our re-bar. Coming together is the concrete in the footer. Now e have a foundation on which we can launch construction of any type building we want, or in this case, any cause, being #AllLivesMatter.


So, that explained, it is easier to understand that if we focus on #AllLivesMatter, and we do it together in all instances, we can and will get a lot more accomplished. If I as a Caucasian run up to a black ma and say #Whitelives matter! I am inviting confrontation. If I approach the same black man and say #AllLivesMatter, it takes the confrontation off of the table. He cannot argue that. So when any race, creed religion, or occupation gets harmed we have a foundation to stand on no matter what the situation and we have 5 times more people strengthening that cause. It is that simple. We will as a society have to put our own individual beliefs aside for the greater good, but isn't that the goal!.... Please think about it and please pass this on to someone, anyone and let's all make sure that #AllLivesMatter!
