Description

Hello all, I usually don't jump on the bandwagon of social memes but this one seems to be affecting a lot of people on a lot of levels. I have a friend that says she is now scared to go out of her house because of the xenophobia and hate that has sprung from the recent event like what took place in France. When we ask for protection from the terrorist by our governments we are also asking our liberties and freedoms to be limited by said government. The best way to fight against terrorism is to continue to live our daily lives and not be afraid of the shadows. I'm not saying go find trouble but living in your house afraid to go out is no life at all. Expecting others to protect you and not giving up some freedoms and privacy in the process then that is no way to live either. We need to understand that we are all the same we are all made of the same materials. We all have the capacity to love, hate, laugh, cry and we all do eventually die. It is just what we do with the time that we are given that makes the difference. Bless you all, Chris note: The image is an old poser scene just messing around. the text was superimposed. I thought the blurriness added to the feel of the ambiguity of the message.

Bravo. I'm most encouraged by the number of people assembling in groups, to stand up and say, "I'm not afraid." I'm losing patience with those who cower and cry, "Same me at any cost!"
