There's so much hate and negativity because of our eagerness to define others by that one thing we don't like. What if we put all that effort into making allies instead of enemies?
The more we simply attack those that disagree, the longer we go without putting true, positive change into the world. And that world is shared by all of us.
Spending our lives comparing ourselves to other people leads us down a dark road where we don't actually live our lives or invest in what we already have.
