With this blessing of anonymity, and the powerful tool of the internet, I pose a question to each person that reads this:

 Who are you to put sanctions on any human being?

Only I may fully know what I am capable of.

Erase the sanctions of the color of my skin.

Erase the sanctions of the color of my hair.

Erase the sanctions of the physical appearance of my body.

Erase the sanctions of my past.

No, do not erase these things from ME, just erase the sanctions.

Notice how i appear

How i speak

How i act.

How i have acted

and understand the implications of these characteristics

in an enlightened format that is in accordance with my past and present, and the power of each action, word and thought emitted from your (and my) being.

Pay attention to the moment you exist inside of

and realize that every element of the universe is connected with you inside of these moments.

be mindful and respectful by generating positivity.

LOVE. UNDERSTANDING.

While it is important to protect oneself, it is equally important to overcome the shackles of our egos. We are entitled to nothing. We are each rewarded with the abilities of the mind, to analyze and critique our own encounters with others and our own personal experiences in life. If we put these powers towards a compassionate path of understanding- then we are taking the first steps towards creating peace. Ironically, we will never fully achieve a state of peace on a macro level. Our minds are simply too imperfect to grasp this. The least we can do though, is to achieve peace daily within ourselves. When we are peaceful with ourselves, we are peaceful with others. We become understanding and aggreable individuals once we remember that a specialized identity is not as important as positive interactions with other people. The ego is, at times, our enemy. However, it breeds innovation. Lets find a balance together.
