Everybody is being so ignorant. Everybody is yelling at each other. Everybody is missing the point.

Really? Everybody?

Your "everybody" may simply be your narrow access point to humanity. A few co-workers or a neighbor or two or a couple of your friends and family or, of course, those people popping up on your social media. But really? Everybody?

You do realize that you are included in someone else's "everybody."

So, try seeing yourself as everybody. Do you hate you? Do you resent you? Are you ignorant to you? Are you yelling at yourself? Are you missing the point? How you think of and treat others is a reflection of your relationship with yourself. What you "expect" or "desire" from "everybody" cannot be realized unless you are truly being all of it.

I offer this cup of coffee to help start an honest conversation with yourself and with others.
