It’s 4 am and I can’t sleep. Lot of things on my mind. I’m saddened by what I feel like is a lack of respect because I see things differently than someone else. Troy liked everyone and always showed them respect no matter how differently they felt about things. It’s a long, hard journey learning to live without him. People who haven’t been through it haven’t a clue. It’s hard to find your way. God has always been there guiding me along the way. I’ve friended many on this journey who are also trying to find their way through the fog. And we all come from different walks of life. It’s unfortunate when someone in your family shuns you because they think you should believe the way they do or they don’t like someone in your life. I always show respect to those who see things differently than I do. We are all different and that’s what makes the United States what it is. No one is going to tell me who my friends can be or that what I believe in makes me a bad person. It’s a reflection on them not me. So the next time you think about shutting someone out because they see things differently, think again. What does that say about you as a person. I’m so glad I don’t do that. I have many friends that come from all walks of life and I’m thankful for them all. Try it sometime, it will enrich your life.
