I was driving home from dropping my youngest off at school one day when I felt impressed to begin a blog again. Quite struck by the odd timing of this thought, as I don't have much time for writing at this time in my life, I chuckled. What could I possibly write about? Then the impression came very strongly and very clearly. It came with a thought about a conversation I had earlier with my husband about feeling misunderstood and wanting to have a way to vocalize my feelings through written word. I had felt "wronged" in a sense by the way others had perceived me and others like me. I wanted a way to express my concern over this misjudgement, a way to set things straight and to feel heard. If I couldn't "right" the wrong I at least wanted to "write" the wrong. And there it was, the impression that I was to start this blog and to write about some of the things that I feel need to be written about that are simply wrong with this world.
I obviously won't be able to cover them all but I hope to touch on many that will get others thinking about how easily we can misjudge a situation or those around us. The world is filled with far too much misunderstanding, hate and intolerance. Let us find what unites us instead of what divides us.
