Judgment is omnipresent.

No matter where you go,

there is a person who will discriminate,

who will assume,

who will attack.

Think hard. Think Deep.

Do you judge?

 

Many hide in silence.

They avoid the judgmental eye.

They follow the crowd because they are afraid.

They do not want to seem different or weird.

They need to fit in, so they throw their morals away.

This bin is overflowing,

with forgotten ways.

 

Since when is it such a sin to be different?

Diversity is beautiful.

Roses. Lilies. Tulips. Pansies.

Autumn. Winter. Spring. Summer.

Savannas. Tundras. Lakes. Swamps.

If all were alike, would each be special?

The same is true for people.
