Love & Engagement

This past Sunday night, I spent time with other dudes around a fire.

We talked life, politics and the week ahead.

“Who will win?”
“Will you be watching it go down?”
“Will it actually be over Tuesday night?”

These were all questions we asked and debated.

Then maybe the most important topic was brought up.

Loving others.

Particularly, what does it really mean to love across the aisle?

As we debated, a line hit me that I couldn’t help but blurt out.

“Love looks like engagement.”

After I said it, I realized how true those words were.

It’s not enough to simply acknowledge love for someone or a group of people.

You have to put those feelings and words to action.
You have to engage.

No matter how this week plays out.
Whether it’s the candidate you picked or not.

Remember to love.
Remember to engage.
