Hi everyone. It's me,James(otherwise known as gb authentic681). While ignorance can be Bliss most days, I've been paying attention to what's going outside of my little bubble, and it seems as the violence in Syria is coming to no end, Russia's war with Ukraine is in its third year and Israel pursuing Hamas in the Gaza strip due to recent aggression by Hamas who is labeled by our country as a terrorist organization and if you went to lower Manhattan you would still see that nasty scar across America's sternum where three daggers the size of Boeing 747s were thrusted into America's heart by 19 malicious actors of evil under marching orders by a leader of an organization who wanted to shed the blood of innocent civilians.
Each event that happened in the past or is happening right now does indeed have their lion's share of differences, they all have one glaring similarity. At their core is an evil that has had a prolonged existence: Hate. Hate over your fellow man wanting a voice in their electoral process, hate for your next door neighbor spawned on by the jealousy of its success, hateful rhetoric and violence towards your next door neighbor not just because they're your next door neighbor, but because they have a different religion from yours and, by extension a bloodthirsty hatred for harmless, innocent civilians who sin is nothing more than claiming American citizenship.
As many of you who follow me probably already know, I work at Topgolf in Greenville, South Carolina, a place where I'm not only encouraged to live vicariously, but also live with a heart of compassion and of love, not just a charitable assumption.
This is why I am proud to announce that I have taken a pledge here and now along with Carson Ferris and his friends in One Voice Children's Choir to show people exactly what this world so desperately needs more of. Love.
I encourage you to join us and make that pledge. After all many of you work alongside me at such an incredible place where we are called to have a heart of compassion)to show it by your actions. Maybe it's you haven't put any volunteering hours lately, showing up at a local soup kitchen out of your own admission not just because someone told you to. If you have not done so already I encourage you to click on that link on their page and make the pledge tonight.
Finally I want you to stop making excuses, quit talking about the many ways you plan on helping your community and just go out there and do them.
