- Protest your cause. Peacefully. If you want someone to respect you, try showing a little respect to them. If you want someone to listen, try listening yourself. If you want to make a change….
Change yourself first. We seldom see the ugliness in ourselves until it’s too late.
- And until we learn to respect, accept and love each other, NOTHING will change. It’s our actions, not our words, that will prove to be effective.
