In any land you have a mix of people. You have a mix of thoughts.
- The positive thinkers the negative thinkers.
- The good doers the bad doers.
- Those who have direction and those who’ve lost their direction.
- Those who have hope and those with no hope.
All these contrasts and differences; how can they work, live – even be together? We who are strong are to bear the infirmities of the weak, yet each man must bear his own load. How does this all work?
That’s why there are standards/guiding principles to help us live even when we don’t feel the best or want to do the best. I’m thinking of two right now:
- In as much as possible with you, be at peace with all men. You do what you can, and let the rest be, and continue on with your life.
- The Golden Rule: Treat others as you want to be treated. Again, do your best and leave the rest.
If in our little areas (our ‘campsites’) we abide by these guidelines, we will find ways to work together and meet the needs of others.
Let’s work together.
