A friend of mine is very disheartened whats going on+how some people even defend Putin+how he+those who disregard rules+democracy get away with it. In the UK or in π·πΊ
βWhy should we not give up and be like the selfish+theTyrants?β
This is how I responded to her.
A Thread π§΅
1 /
2 /βI totally understand your frustration.
Itβs unbelievable what selfishness people have these days.
You are right and correct in all you say.
There is zero excuse for the brutality and mass murder that Putin is doing in Ukraine
3 /(and in several other countries of course) and how he corrupted Brexit and how he corrupted the UK government and how he gives billions of pounds to his oligarch friends in Knightsbridge while his own Russian people are dying of poverty and freezing to death in the wide areas
4 / of the Tundra and Siberia and Moscow etc.
But your question is:
is it still worth being a good person?
While everyone else doesnβt seem to care?
Yes,itβs still worth being on the good side.
We truly live in βRobin Hoodβ-times.
5 /Only very few are good and see the Truth.
You are one of them.
You are very good.
We need people like you. Donβt give up.
We have to look at the good people and get encouraged .
8 / themselves against the tyrant from Moscow.
We will not just be left at the mercy of Russia.
I know thatβs how the Ukrainians felt - and still they all picked up their weapons and resisted. Much to the surprise of Moscow.
9 / There is always good. The good people are often less than the bad.
But many times the few good have changed the world for the better.
Think of the Berlin / Eastern-Western Germany dividing Wall that came down.
Never would we have thought that would happen.
And it did.
10 /So take heart.
Hold on.
Remain on the good side.
There will be better times.
If not today then it will be tomorrow.
The evil is so full of lies and deceit.
But still - darkness doesnβt stand a chance in the light.
11 / βThere is pain in the night but joy comes in the morning.β
A verse from the bible comes to mind.And whether weβre religious or not this is true.
I believe. God can give wisdom to people. Like he have to people like Dietrich Bonhoeffer in the Third Reich. To resist the Nazis
12 / To resist the Nazis. He paid the ultimate price for it.
He said he had that strength because God knew him, knew who he as human was and that his future was in his hands. I believe that too. Whatever strength you get though from any faith or conviction and values - we all
13 / unite now to fight the evil. Thatβs how itβs defeated .
Light is stronger than darkness.
And darkness has to flee when the morning comes.
May this be true in all our efforts to help Ukraine πΊπ¦.
14 / Have a good day.β
