Finding Common Ground

Is only a matter of CIVILITY

Finding Common Ground

Contradictory beliefs are part of our daily lives, but

If we all believed and thought the same, there would be no spice

Venture to seek out those whose views may differ

Invest in understanding what makes others think the way they do, and then by

Learning from each other through dialogue, we’ll set a better path

If we make the effort to actively listen, rather than ridicule

Time will accept us as equals without need for hatred, and

Yesterday’s ignorance will not prevail.
