Love the pen name, Hank! 😉 based on the TW, I was expecting something different from this post (and was pleasantly surprised my emotions didn’t have to go there). I understand losing subs to those topics. Glad you’re pushing through and writing a story even though it might be controversial (shouldn’t be, seems like we should all the on the same page on that one). Agree about the golden rule being the only thing all religions agree on (but with the exception that many apply it only to people who share similar characteristics, like worshipping the same god or having the same color skin or social class)
Thank you 🙏 Jennifer. I'm so excited to introduce Hank to the world! I have wanted to for years, and I think that it's finally time.
It's difficult to talk/write about difficult topics, but how else are we all supposed to work these things out? That's part of the problem imo, people aren't discussing these things. They're just drawing a conclusion and retreating into a corner of similar beliefs.
Sad too, the whole point of TGR is to look past the differences - it's saying, Love them regardless 🤍
Great post MJ. It is so necessary to be kind. I love Plato’s message. He says, “Be kind. Everyone is fighting their own battles.” We should even be kind to the person who is unkind to us. That’s probably the hardest thing to do. It’s so much easier to block them, right. Be kind to unkind people because we don’t know what battles they’re fighting.
Hank Cotton gets to say what is on Hank Cotton's mind. I sincerely hope no one takes offense at your art, but if they do, they weren't your audience anyway.
Be kind, y'all. Ram Dass once said that we are all just walking each other home. That's about right.
Thanks! Hank's quite the character 😉 And there's a lot more where that came from, so buckle up buttercup! I'm hoping he'll make a big splash in the next two years or so.🤠🤙

Absolutely! And that little bit of kindness that we share with them, might just make a HUGE difference in their life.
It's more challenging but definitely rewarding.

Thanks Rick! I've not heard that quote yet, but I love it 🤍
So with you MJ. Kindness is an embodiment of self. If not in you, it shows in reactions. Hank… now I want to get to know him 😊
So right!

You keep doing your thing. It will attract the right audience and there is no reason why that won’t be a big audience.
Thank you 🙏 Phillip. I appreciate you.
