āWe are all on a different path and we all see through different eyes. Current world issues that you are passionate about, arenāt always what other people are trying to change⦠and thatās okay. Itās not everyoneās job to save every part of the world but it is everyoneās responsibility to thank every person who is doing THEIR part to save the world. Donāt critique, just appreciate. Donāt judge, just educate. Weāre all trying our best. Thank you.ā
āTo the person who uses metal straws to save fish but consumes animals, Iād like to say thank you. To the vegan who isnāt aware of our homelessness problem, thank you. To the climate change activists who arenāt attentive to fast fashion, thank you. To the girl who gives her old clothes to the disadvantaged but isnāt educated on s*x trafficking, thank you. To the guy who picks up rubbish on his way home from a surf but isnāt well-informed about male su***de rates, thank you. To the people who stand up for horse racing concerns but are uninformed of the cruelty of the dairy industry, thank you. To the positive Instagram influencer who hasnāt cultivated a plastic-free lifestyle, thank you. To the grandparents who knit for sick children but arenāt up to date with current race and homophobic issues, thank you. To the students that stand up for bullying but are unaware of the constant domestic violence epidemic, thank you. To the peace activists, feminists, stray dog adopters, teachers, volunteers, foster carers, recyclers, givers, doers and believers, I say thank you. We are all on a different path and we all see through different eyes. Current world issues that you are passionate about, arenāt always what other people are trying to change⦠and thatās okay. Itās not everyoneās job to save every part of the world but it is everyoneās responsibility to thank every person who is doing THEIR part to save the world. Donāt critique, just appreciate. Donāt judge, just educate. Weāre all trying our best. Thank you.ā Carla Borthwick.
