You know, sometimes, what needs to be done is just Hard, and folks 'blindly' and automatically 'move away from'.
I've got to rake the leaves today, but I'm going to make a point of working seeing the Movie into my budget, even though it received this scaithing review.
While viewing the flick, I'll remember Kamal, and all those who Suffer at the hands of "man's inhumanity to man", in all Nations, everywhere, and I'll 'move toward' their crying-out, letting it course right-through me. And I'll Cheer for those who, despite the fact that it's Hard, still work toward getting the point across to folks who tend to 'move away from'.
Sometimes, what needs to be done is just Hard.
Consider folks' efforts through that 'lens', seeing what's in 'hearts', while understanding that it's Hard to Choose not to 'move away from'.
It's what will make a difference, not bullets and bombs.
