A Shoutout

 

A shoutout to people who still know how to use filters when they speak, realizing the ultimate objective is not putting others in their place, but to create an environment where dialogue, learning and growth are valued.


A shoutout to people who still know how to dress modestly in public, realizing the world is not your personal space for you alone to be comfortable in. 


A shoutout to people who reprocess information, realizing that not everything was covered comprehensively in 5th grade. 


A shoutout to people who don’t create terms primarily to use as labels to insult those they don’t agree with. 


A shoutout to those that question from a position of curiosity rather than question for the purpose of condemnation. 


A shoutout to those who listen with the intent to understand. 


A shoutout to those who seek peace, even if a solution is not in sight. 


A shoutout to people who realize they are not stuck in traffic, rather, they are traffic. 


A shoutout to people who purpose to explain less with words, using actions more. 


A shoutout to people who act positively when the cameras aren’t on, and there’s little or no chance for attention. 


A shoutout to people who don’t need to  say “read that again”.


A shoutout to people who don’t have to be first in order to be winning.
