It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.
This has certainly been an interesting one which I have been debating about doing because it is a little bit tough for me on the emotional side. I have always found it important that when you see something going on that is wrong--just do something. Do not sit idly by and hope that someone else does what you think is right. As a man who is finally okay with his sexual identity, if I were to see a gay man, lesbian woman, or transgender individual being attacked, I would certainly say or do something to the other party involved. Unfortunately, more often than not history proves that people will often sit around thinking that things will right themselves. A perfectly good example of this is the Holocaust. People kept thinking that someone will come by and prevent the atrocities of the Holocaust from happening, but it took several years before that happened. I guess my major point when thinking about this post (at least for now... this very well could be one I will come back to) is no matter what happens do not expect that the world is as empathetic and sensitive as you--do something no matter what. Keep reading dear followers... more to come. Only 298 more to go.
