SOCIAL JUSTICE

As I am getting closer to finishing this master's program I am finding myself having a stronger desire for social justice. Throughout our country, let alone the world, are people who are struggling to survive, they are financially impovershed, physically ill, and often socially shunned. So what do we do about it? I think the first thing we have to do is decide that we are willing to get involved. We have to be willing to get our hands dirty, to humble ourselves, and to see that there is a need we can meet. We have to be willing to do the hard work, to take the road less traveled, and to make a possitive difference. We have to choose to get uncomfortable, to build relationships, and to spend our time on someone other than ourselves. What we need to do is actually love others as much as we love ourselves.
