Moo! My life matters. Because

ALL lives matter.

COEXISTENCE MATTERS
ALL lives matter.

Equilibrium, because we all count. We all matter. This means me, you, everyone else. What difference does the color of our skin tone make? How does it seperate the life of one, to the life of another? Even when I have my ups and downs at the end of the day, I am a peacemaker and this is my perspective. This is what I will say.

Black lives matter. Because all lives matter. Because peace matters. The safety of people of different ethnicities, matter. Making and keeping the peace is necessary like again not repeating history’s old cycle of racism and the hate crimes it has brought forth. For what purpose does it even serve. When a positive chain reaction can do so much more.

Because when lives normal again and people continue on with their plans that were interrupted by something that caused enough losses. We should all feel recognized that the color of our skin does not seperate us again. Where ever we are we should feel welcomed, regardless of the color of our skin. Because when we are all in this together we stand together.

If I had a passport with the financial ability of traveling and I went somewhere of a different culture or people like every where and their diversity like there is in my country I would hope they saw me as I see them. As I see everyone of different ethnicities and religions, equal. As I see people of diversity in my country.

Because why should they think differently? Who is they when when are all in this together. We should be one and stay one and not seperated or disrupted by racism and violent hate crimes even for a moment. That moment has passed and it needs not arise again when we can do better.

Because we the people of America of anywhere are better. Because even if someone lacks the moral or value of equality, a rational thought can do greater. That rational thought which ought be, this is unhelpful. We should show people we are better.

I stand against these hate crimes and how it has effected the lives of others negatively. I hope for the healing of these people and this planet. And how can I help? By starting not only with my voice, but my prayer. Because when there’s a hashtag saying we’re all in this together but these lives lost because of violent hate crimes? Oh Dear God. These people’s families need justice.

What is this? What has history taught us? That it has a good outcome? That we can look back on it while saying, “like oh that was great! What a happy story we can share with the world. This is what we want for our following generations to remember us by. That we accidentally repeated mistakes that lessons history taught us not to for a moment.״

Actually..Honestly no it clearly does not. Racism is just like old. It is what is taught in history classes and honestly the future can have a better story. How does the color of our skin mean we matter or dont. Black lives matter! Yes, because ALL lives matter, and when ALL lives matter that includes black lives. All lives should be protected from racism and injustice.

Because behind the reasons and logic there is sunshine. That dark cloudy sky that lingers over the heads of people who have lost their loved ones? Deserves a rainbow and hope. Society wherever people are in the world has been taught better. Whatevers even happened with lessons we have already seen in history if we don’t apply the lesson? Ok everyone buckled under pressure? But what lessons history taught us they did not go away, just like applying them. Peace I say ,peace.

George was guilty of a crime, of which ok he could have been given time. Like any criminal. The kind where they have no choice but realize and be an example unto others how racism violence and hate crimes are not the answer! Instead the cops gave themselves time. Not the kind of time you would want. Nice job for my home state by the way there is some justice served there. Like there should be for everyone. Can this violence teach us that history repeating is useless. Evolving is essential because life matters.

Because black lives matter when all lives matter. All lives should be protected from violent and racist hate crimes. Better yet we get past the racism and how it had negatively impacted people because it lacks common sense. Once and for all. We can shine a vibrant light of coexistence through this nation and world. Bringing our people of the planet closer. We got through this as a world, and that is miraculous.

In a society where we have walked along side eachother with what history taught us and accepted the differences we have or we do not and walk along side one another and coexist instead. White or Black. What are we, marker colors? No. Because we all matter, color is not a circumstance. Martin Luther King alone taught us this. This is my loudest voice silently saying,

So if you can hear me

Coexistence can be an outcome from these hate crimes. For they have been a problem but I? I declare peace as a solution. We must jump back from this because the world deserves it. I deserve it. You deserve it. Society took a step back in the wrong direction when moving forward is what it is the time for. I can be one that can help lead it back in the right direction where we have been heading since the end of African American slavery and segregation.

In a discussion with my friends we communicated how we have seen people set apart because of religion and race. How it has impacted our lives wether which side of the spectrum of racism we were on. My hope for the future of the world is that not only for society today but the future generations are only taught of it not be exposed or experience it. Because standing together means we should stay past that.

Especially in a time when we have been saying how we are all in this together, COVID19 and doing the things we can do we can hold our communities together. There is no separation because of skin tone other than social distancing. I am no fool, but racism? Violent hate crimes? That is foolishness and that happening in society was beyond it.

History has taught the world a lot of things, through stories, religions, books and technology. Racism, hate crimes and violence does not solve anything. A world of equilibrium where all lives matter, that is what I envision. A world where all lives matter because love matters. Everybody is different and individuality? Is beautiful.

Because my life matters. I was a part of a violent hate crime myself, hated on for having blonde hair, discriminated against violently because I am white and blonde. But did I do it back and find someone I didn’t like with a different color skin tone than me? No, I protested for my own justice too. Like always.

The biggest point I am making on this is, because all lives matter, black lives matter. This means that not only the safety but our rights matter. Because to each their own life. No one can say this or be who I am for me because my life matters, my voice matters, and so does yours.

And so did each of the lives lost because of crimes like these. Like the justice of their families and others directly impacted by it. These crimes and injustices must be stopped. For good. Because what has it ever solved? They need justice, I need justice and we need peace. We should all feel content in color of our skin or the color of our hair. Because being different? That is what makes everyone beautiful. But beauty in the eye of the beholder does not mean unjust violence.

But if the criminal does something that is not right than clearly jail them, bring them to justice, have justice served. This is how the world works. For the people, regardless of our skin tone. Because that is a good way we can reverse the chain reaction of violent hateful racism, and continue improving. Same goes for everyone else who has been negatively impacted.

I’ve grew up my whole life not understanding the concept, the audacity of racism. Personally I have always been beyond it. Not every one is or has been but can’t history teach us all that we are also? Society says be ourselves but society also has laws. As a leader I would like seeing the people in society who discriminates do better. It would be rational.

Because everyone’s lives, safety, freedom, privacy, success, happiness and health, matter. Because I have a dream too. That we get past this, that I have justice, and the world has justice. That we are an evolved society where these things? Which should have stopped happening a lot time ago. Have. Because we should be healing eachother and together from a pandemic, having liberty and justice for all. Racism and hate crimes are out of style and solve nothing.

I have had a dream since I was young, that I will travel the world. But not only for seeing it, charting it, painting it, and learning it. But helping bring others close through the power of music. With the goal of a message, a mission, and a voice louder than the music.

Equality sounds better, peace sounds better. Equilibrium and proper level of operation is better than the chaos, destruction, disruption, and the crimes and killings that cannot be justified. But they will be brought to justice for what the caused people. Even when people do something illegal that is why prison, and jails exist. Regardless of their skin color.

George Floyd should have been saved by bystanders. Because saying and doing the right thing? Should be the trend. There is always a rational way of bringing others to justice. Violence that was unjust is not the way because as we can see in history as neither is racism.

Discrimination? Should have stayed in the old news. The history of how America has got where it has today. We must make America great by keeping it that way. Especially when it involves the people who enforce the laws which hello? Apply to them too.

There is no progression when people fall back from things we have been taught well in history how hard we fought against it. Now is the time for progression especially after how COVID19 has had an impact in the world. Because how can we be in this together if we do not accept eachother? I accept the world regardless of religion, race, or color. Like many people do we all should be. Evolving and growing together as a world where when we say we’re working through something like a pandemic is how we must continue.

Because everyone can agree unjust violence, racism and crimes is not the answer and we must keep fighting it peacefully. Inside of a world where the color of our skin, is really just a reflection of how much melanin we do or we do not have in our body. Lessons history has taught us do not need repeat themselves.

All lives won’t always matter for everyone, but we can ALL still coexist even if their lives do not matter to each other.

ALL lives serve a purpose in the order of the universe. In the pyramid of life. Let the lives that we lost be where we stand even stronger for togetherness and peace because that is what we should have been doing all along. We are America and we should never stop standing for the correct values this country was built upon.

Peace and equilibrium it does not matter just to humans and ordinary people, but those who want the betterment of humans and their society. For evolving is better than repeating mistakes that do not solve anything. This is common sense that can be understood. This is a petition, this is a plead, and my declaration.

Equilibrium.

Because what is universal peace? It is the mission. Where there is equality, there is justice, and where there is justice there is peace. Where there is peace there is structure. And structure? Does more than merely keep the world going around. It keeps order.

Because hello umm evolving is a good thing, taking care of the planet and the people is what we should be focusing on. Free energy should be what the news says. Because the sun did not put out the moon when it had a light that shined a different color. The sun and the moon both shine with eachother. They both serve a purpose in the universe, and they are both needed.

At a time when a virus negatively impacted society and we are fixing the global impact little by little so we can continue with our lives goals and dreams we should be standing as one. Because we are survivors and survivors need not not fight for the justice and rights when color is merely a pigment. Combined diversity is a blessing in this world. That means racism and the hate crimes stop, for good.

Because equilibrium like ALL lives, matters.
