Tough life thoughts: Sometimes life isn't hard, we have just gotten weak. If we makes ourselves sheltered and avoid hard experiences then when little things come, we fall apart. Like going for a five mile run when you are out of shape. Five miles isn't long, most people can do it even at a slow pace - but when you are out of shape it's a lot harder to do

There are a lot of good books, experiences and places that you could go to learn about the way some people live.

Enmity: The state or feeling of being actively opposed or hostile to someone or something. We should not feel enmity towards other people, in fact we should judge ourselves by how we treat people who are unkind to us. Turn the other cheek. Something that the Nazi's focused on was to outcast 'types' of people. Hitler mainly hated the Jews and incorporated that hate into society. Slowly he got the majority of the population to hate the Jews, amongst many others. He had no tolerance for people who

You never graduate from learning. Though, sometimes we feel childish when we get to start something new. Very few adults learn new talents. Why is it that when we get older we think that because we never had the chance when we are young, that we missed it? We didn't miss it, we are afraid of the discomfort that will come from starting something new. You are never to old to be a rookie! We all need to develop the habit of becoming a voracious learner.

What group or people do we de-humanize? Democrats? Republicans? Muslims? Black people? White people? The list goes on, why do we objectify people?
