The Duty to Care


I never, ever thought I would do this. It is an election year and due to the current circumstances we haven't really been seeing as many political ads as we normally would. In fact the media have barely seemed to cover it. With the pandemic raging it is understandable. But I have seen a few ads and one stood out. Yes, that's right, I am going to post a political ad. What struck me about this ad and the reason I sit and listen to it when it comes on, rather than tune out, is that it is spot on regarding what America needs now. It is a Biden for President ad, but even if you don't like Biden and have no intention of voting for him, listen to what he says. Because he is absolutely right.





The world is in a world of hurt right now. It needs smart people who really care about something more than themselves and their own petty agendas to pull us through. And it needs all of us to care. To care about taking responsibility for our actions. To care about other people.

If we all care and open our hearts we can do amazing things. If you don't believe me listen to Emmanuel Kelly, who has faced a challenging path in life to rise above.  Or listen because it's just a beautiful song sung by a man with an amazing voice. ;)
