We are One

We are one

Stop. Look. Listen. 
We are one
Created from 
The same 
Multi colored earth
With the same 
Red blood pumping
Through the same
Four chambered heart
With the same
Internal organs
To filter the toxins
Used to make us safer
In our food and water
The same
Hopes and dreams
To live free
From oppression
From judgement
By those who 
If judged
Would fail

Do not let
The color of your skin
The beliefs of your soul
The traditions of your ancestors
The voice of some 
Charismatic Dictator
Change the truth
We are one
Born with love
In our hearts
Dreams in our heads
We. Are. One.

The Transgender bathroom debate ...

This whole situation has become totally out of control. The laws they are passing and trying to pass do nothing but cause problems when really there was not a problem to begin with.

It's really pretty simple. If I have a child living as a female then she uses the ladies room and if they are living as a male he uses the men's room. Both restrooms have stalls. If a person that looks like a male uses the ladies room (or vice versa) that will cause more issues than someone that looks like a female using the ladies room. 

I can see there could be some issues in schools, I imagine with some confusion for young people. However, those things should be addressed on an individual basis and with educational information given to affected schools. 

The argument that this allows predators into the restrooms is not valid in my opinion. They are already there. Have always been there. Just like there have always been transgender people. Why people think this is something new boggles my mind. 

Stop the hate people! Stop the judgement of other human beings that are just trying to get through this life as happy as they can. 

Peace and Love.
