Exceptional
This work has reached the exceptional level
Ideas to consider
A chapter in the book Complete

Taken to the Extreme

by Jesse James Doty

Conclusions reached with black and white thinking
encourage intolerance and acts of injustice

Try to allow for differences
It's hard, but we must try
otherwise, we will live and die
without knowing true and deep peace

Show reverence for life of all kinds
whether plant, animal, or human being

There is no room for taking anything to the extreme
A good idea gone terribly wrong was yesterday's song

Inability to see how theory and practice
are different conceptional realities;
both require moderation
with visions of cooperation
that must be anticipated and mixed in
allowing for harmony instead of discord
unity instead of division
commonality instead of opposition

Reacting positively to taking on responsibility
is a way of being genuine and true
to oneself, as well as others

Make a difference--
take care of your sisters and brothers
in spite of the history that blocks compassion;
let love be in fashion once again---
not only be a lover, but also a friend
In the end, you will recover all the time you spend
