I am no longer accepting the things I cannot change.

I am changing the things I cannot accept.

If you see something that is not right,
not fair,
not just,
you have a moral obligation to do something about it.

— John Lewis

Do Justly, Love Mercy

   

The Lord has told you, human, what is good;
he has told you what he wants from you:
to do what is right to other people (“do justly”),
love being kind to others (“love mercy”),
and live humbly, obeying your God.

— Micah 6:8
