I Love Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, Donald Trump, and J.D. Vance

Don’t you?

If you’re like most Americans today, you love (or at least tolerate) the politicians in your tribe and you loathe and despise those in the “other” tribe — those you perceive as a threat to your vision of the country.

We need to do better.

I’m human and thus far from perfect, but I can honestly say…

I strive to love everyone in the path of my life and everyone I see on the news or on social media. And that means…

I strive to love both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. And Tim Walz, J.D. Vance, Joe Biden, Mike Johnson, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Sonya Sotomayor, and … well you get the idea.

Do I always have the feelings of love at the forefront of my mind when these people come to mind?

No. I’m human. But…

Love isn’t really about feelings.

That’s how most people feel about love these days, but that’s not true love.

Love is more about giving than feeling.

Thomas Aquinas defined love as…

To will the good of the other
