Taking a Stand

I am not a believer in Good vs Evil..but I do believe that there is a energy struggle between light (higher) and Dark (lower) energies that over the last century have permeated our society.
 
The only way to counter the lower energy is to shine the light on the darkness...
 
Standing up for what is right makes us feel alone, that we are only one person doing the right thing  and that cannot change the world....
 
My challenge to you is;not keeping silent when we see the dark at work. It is also a challenge to defend the light, by keeping silent we accept it.
 
Not taking a stand against hate, injustice and chaos is just as bad as doing it.
 
Support those who are doing the right thing, add your voice to theirs and before you know it a symphony will sound and it can't be ignored.
 
If enough of us take a stand for what we believe in, the light of peace, love and compassion will shine and the darkness will fade.
 
Stop gossip, stop hate, stop chaos; speak up, whether it is on the bus, in your office or school or at home. 
 
Your protest will give others permission to speak up and together we will create the loving world that is so desperately needed now.
 
It may go down with a fight, but the darkness will disappear once you shine your light on it.
 
Here is the thought for the day;
 
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience
but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
The true neighbor will risk his position,
his prestige and even his life for the welfare of others.
In dangerous valleys and hazardous pathways,
he will lift some bruised and beaten brother
to a higher and more noble life.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
