DON’T YOU?

Laura🌻

Championing a cause is admirable.

Arm yourself with the facts 

Before initiating the debate

And espousing to one and all

That YOU are the know it all.

You don't want your cause to be a bust 

So being responsible is a must.

 


           You do want it to be memorable—

           DON'T YOU?

    Spot on Laura. There are too many 'bull in a china shop' tactics employed without reasoned discussion and respect for others. Thankfully here in the UK we've now got a reasoned calm and measured opposition leader - just hope he will live up to the promise.

    eloquently espoused & perfectly penned..

    Erm, yes, it helps if we know what we're talking about - if we 'know our subject'. How can anyone else know what we're on about, if we don't know ourselves! lol.
    Bit like - it helps to plug in the television to get a picture on the screen. Oh, and put the 'ON' switch, erm, on too!

    Excellently put Laura. Case in point: a certain leader of a certain country (my own), and all he cares about is making himself out as God's gift to the world. Personally, I don't think he would be God's gift to the world. God is the exact opposite of him.

    Hope you've been well Laura.

    YES!!!!!

    But it's difficult to overlook absurdity.

    these words are still applicable ... unfortunately, they are timeless ..
    ... and that, sadly is a compliment ...

    Just tripped over this by accident, Laura. Liked it very much.
    Pinned/published before I joined (fortunately? 😊)
