Be the change you wish to see in the world is attributed to Mahatma Gandhi who in fact said we but mirror the world. What we see in the mirror today in our politics is darkness and chaos, and it is spreading like a contagion.
To be the change, how about members of Congress acting with decorum and treating each other with respect instead of acting like mean girls in high school, acting in the best interests of their constituents instead of showing up at a criminal trial to score points with the former President, and checking their egos at the door instead of thirsting for power?
We should leave the world in a better place for those who come after us. Are we doing this? Politics should not be a blood sport. We need to step back from anger, sowing chaos, name calling, and sycophancy to nurture our democracy instead of tearing it down. Let’s hope it’s not too late.
