Be good. And help others be good. That's all the advice I've been able to received this week. I've been struggling with the "love thy neighbor" stuff. It hard to love people who are hard to love in general. My faith tells me to love others, but it also creates in me a joy to actually do it. And most of the time its great until you meet the aforementioned hard people. According to the scriptures, God designed us to do good and encourage people. So, the way I'm able to love those hard people is to just be good around them, for them, and to them. Maybe through me simply being good, hard people can turn into easy people to love.
