Facebook was both a brilliant and challenging place yesterday. I wasn't the only one feeling the pull to divide one from another.
At one point I was asked how I could love all immigrants, as some might be bad, and if I love Brits too. I told my friend that I especially love bad people. Those who have been labelled bad, those who think of themselves as bad. That I've not yet met a perfect person. That I believe we are all good and all struggle.
I've made a badge to wear today. I'm off to Bridlington for the day so might encounter a few folk on what looks to be a long day out (I'm hoping I can sleep on the coach) I couldn't fit on all the people and all the identities I love so went with "you" and I've explained to my friend that I love immigrants and people who live in the place they were born.
I hope you feel the love today. And if it doesn't feel like there's enough, I hope you can generate and spread more :-)
