Whatever your stripe

It makes no difference to me what color your stripes. What matters to me is how you treat those of a seemingly "clashing" hue, and especially, those who are polka dot.

At the end of the day, most of us are truly on the same side — the side of humanity. We want peace, prosperity, harmony, health, and to be treated with respect for the very fact we exist.

Arguing and acting out fuels flames at lightning speed. Love always proves the victor, and has the patience to stay the course. There's no one with whom I'd rather go through these trials than you. Thank you for being my friend.

PS - it took me about 10 times longer to colorize this zebra than to write this post! Now we know where my time actually goes.
