What have you done to help change the culture/division in America? I personally go out of my way to bring races/people together. I don't do community service anymore, and there is a good reason for that. I've taken it upon myself to look after people of this city in time of need... and I feel blessed to be able to do this. I wanted to know what people on this board do as individuals to help fellow human beings? Please help me make this a "feel good" thread for all who feel the need for change in this beautiful country We All share.
I am truly blessed and enjoy telling people on the internet what a great person I am -- this serves as a guide for the needy down a path of righteousness I teach using both words and actions. On this BLESSED day we are the children of God.
I rob from the rich and give to the poor! I'm basically a modern day Robin Hood! ... ....... ....... .......
I refuse to watch The Legend of Tarzan because the actor doesn't resemble anything like the original.
What exactly does this mean? I've never witnessed anything horrible about division/culture differences in America as much as the media makes it out to be. Everyone I meet is sane and reasonable. Where is all the **** happening man? On TV.
Gerrymandering is exactly what I'm talking about... TV is used to push government agendas. Psychological warfare.
I don't agree with the premise of the thread. I think that a great majority of the people in America are of acceptable moral standards and can get along well enough to function with most other people. Those who can't have some sort of deep seeded pathology or animus that it would be far more difficult to overcome than would be worthwhile, it is best to just ignore them and move on. I am not willing to put in any more effort to the issue than writing criticisms on the internet that they will either likewise ignore or respond to with claims of victimhood.
Over the last 6-months, I've been blessed to help a 70 year old African American woman get to and from work, miles out of my way. What I loved most about the experience was she and I taking care of her errands before dropping her off, as we would put our arms around each other...at the grocery store, at the bank, etc. and people would look at us in astonishment. I'm 45 and she is 70...old enough to be my mother...and by no means is she a sugar momma. Lol During this time I went out of town twice and just gave her my car to use (under my insurance) to get to and from work, not caring what the repercussions could have been. I'm speaking in past tense here as I no longer have to drive her around. Out of the goodness of my heart - I gave her my car. My wife and I talked about maybe accepting payments, however we decided against it. About three weeks ago we decided to give it to her as a gift. It's a good and dependable car, might I add. A 2000 Suzuki Grand Vitara with only 107K miles. The bottom line is that I didn't have to do this. Diane ("momma D") is now like a second mother to me as I know she is forever grateful for my generosity. That's just one of my stories...
