The mantra of my blog is "think big." I've tried to provide content from my life that has inspired me to think bigger and hopefully package it in a form that inspires others likewise. The purpose of this post is to provide an anti-mantra so that readers perhaps understand what I would like readers to not do. See below.
I find it so funny when someone tells me that they are protesting one thing or another in their life because they don't agree with it. While I can see where they are coming from (i.e. something displeases me so I'm not going to support it), and I even think it is a good thing that we somehow fight evil, I hope that we realize just how interconnected the world is these days. Like my vegetarian friends that don't eat meat because they can't stand the thought of killing animals. Idealistic? I guess. But what about all of those living breathing plants that we brutally mutilate with every appetizing bite?
