There’s something happening here. America is bruised, battered, and in many ways broken. Depending on who you ask, some will say this problem of “brokenness” goes back 400 years ago. Others think it’s a new issue that started this week with the brutal police killing of George Floyd. What you believe (and where you fall on this spectrum) may largely depend on your race, socio-economic background, or even your political party. However, what is clear and undeniable is that fear, rage, hatred, and racism exist in America. Things have to change.
As we individually and collectively navigate the overwhelming challenges affecting our country, remember that nothing changes on its own. People must change “it.” WE must change how WE think, feel, believe, and do. We must use our talents, voice, and professional skills to hold people accountable and to help others see and do things in new and different ways.
This week, the Living on Purpose Project is heading to social media to spread so much needed love and positivity. Join us in sharing your most inspirational and uplifting photos, quotes and messages to remind us that we can create the change we want to see – one person at a time.
