## Content

Default to love I was having lunch with a friend recently and we got on the topic of the response to the LGBTQ movement and many related topics (transgenderism, sports, etc). There’s a lot going on, things are changing quickly, and it’s hard to keep track of everything. The guy I was with is much more educated on all of this than I am, but even he said “it’s hard to understand all of it”. I agree. Out of the “hard to understand” you have two choices. You can struggle to understand and show hate, or you can struggle to understand and show love. It seems like a very easy decision, but there are a shocking number of people (even “good” people) that choose hate. I don’t understand that reaction either. If you’re not sure of how to respond to a situation, default to love.
