Perhaps the voices of the past should inform the present and the future. Free your mind and indeed the rest will follow.

One of these days I won’t worry about what some of my family and friends think about my posts. I know I am left-of-center about most things, while many of my friends and family are more conservative. Perhaps I am too chicken and don’t want to cause a conflict. Maybe I just need some courage to speak my mind. It could be a matter of people not liking or loving me for what I believe. Social media can chew you up and it shouldn’t. It’s really hard to be a blue dot in a very red state.

Past pain can inform us and help us do things differently. Making mistakes is a human thing but that is a part of the process of anything. No matter what your failures remember the success. Don’t give up!
