Wise words spoken a century ago by Teddy Roosevelt #Boston #LoveTrumpsHate
Nothing spreads faster than gossip and fake news, but we can slow them down. Be the one to quit spreading the words and the sentiment. Seek understanding before judging, criticising and condemning. Before sharing, verify: if it’s false, don’t share it; if it cannot be verified, don’t share it. If it’s true, it’s not gossip.

As souls in human form, we face many spiritual challenges. One of these is to overcome the temptation to hate. If we fail to grasp the lesson that all are equally loved by the Universal Intelligence, the spiritual laws of reincarnation and karma ensure that we return to try, try again. Failure of groups and nations to “get it” creates negative societal patterns such as legacy guilt and legacy resentment.

As Nelson Mandela said, “No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”
In keeping with this idea, I’m sharing a link to a powerful video presentation from PBS Frontline, “A Class Divided” http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/class-divided/
“The day after Martin Luther King, Jr. was killed, a teacher in a small town in Iowa tried a daring classroom experiment. She decided to treat children with blue eyes as superior to children with brown eyes. FRONTLINE explores what those children learned about discrimination and how it still affects them today.”
