We can be the change we want to see in the world!
My name is Jose Franco, (owner of Stoop Juice) I believe all political parties are made up of flawed people. The acceptance of this reality head on - don’t expect perfection in government with regards to politics.
Don’t presume rationality will triumph. The wise does everything to assume that error and folly will try to have their way and create structures to contain them. The wise never expects that one person can be everything to them.
Maybe it’s wrong of me to share my rebellious views on my business’s website since I live in a state of dissatisfaction with language. At times I've felt alienated, cut off from others and myself within language.
In my 54 years, I’ve yet to come across a political group or race of people who's members are 100% contented and untroubled. Indeed, as long as there is language it will confuse us, we will face the temptation to misunderstand. And there is no vantage point outside it. There is no escape from language games then, but we can forge a kind of freedom from within them. We might first need to ‘be stupid’ or embrace our insignificance if we are to see this.

We all (regardless of race) should try doing a two part thought exercise (self interview) that doesn't require any likes, feedback or comments from externalities. Instead of presenting your political enemy's argument in its weakest form, we should aim to present our adversary's argument in its strongest form - in order to learn more about ourselves.
A resume is a piece of paper, packaged to highlight what applicants consider their strengths to new employers but doesn’t show potential employers the tendencies of an applicant, their ability to communicate, and past judgments.
I know what I’m asking isn’t easy. Reinventing yourself through self-reflection by being in the present moment may be difficult for most of us since a flawed approach may reveal itself.
Are you awake and aware of your surroundings? If so, let’s create a better America by first, working on the top three things we each need to improve upon. Openness begins with the ability to self-critique and reflect upon things central to one’s own beliefs, thoughts, actions, behavior, and results.
