Hurting anyone or anything, including yourself creates the fear of being harmed.
What we do comes back to us, either actually or in our psyches.
When we hurt another in anyway, we fear being hurt by someone, somewhere, sometime.
When we hurt, scare, demean, reject or abandon the ones we love, we are harming them.
Violence begets violence.
When we feel fear, we may become violent.
When we are violent with those who are violent, the violence escalates.
When fear and violence escalate, we have wars where innocent people are harmed.
We can end war.
We can create peace.
We can end violence.
We can return to kindness and respect.

Respect your own boundaries.
Respect your own body.

Respect your neighborhood and world.
Respect everyone’s right to life, liberty and happiness.

It is time for us to grow up and mature.
It is time for us to manage our own lives, and stop minding other’s business.
It is time to make the best choices for ourselves without needing other’s permission or approval.
It is time to be wholly responsible for what we create for ourselves.
Do no harm with your thoughts. May they bring blessings.
Do no harm with your words. May they be encouraging.
Do no harm with your actions. May they be of service.
Attend to your thoughts, words and deeds, for they reach and teach everyone everywhere.
Be gentle, respectful and inspiring with your thoughts, words and interactions,
Loving you, Betty Lue
