It’s done. The verdict is in. NOT GUILTY on all counts. Now what? Debates or dialogue? It’s already a given.. many will question how is it that NFL star, Michael Vick, was found guilty and sentenced to 23 months in jail for his association with dog fighting and the death of pitbulls, and how NFL star, Plaxico Burress was sentenced to 20 months in prison after accidentally shooting himself in a New York nightclub, but George Zimmerman was sentenced to nothing for the shooting death of an unarmed teenager?
Yes, it happened. And even if George Zimmerman was found guilty and sentenced to life… Trayvon Martin would still be dead. There is no bringing back Trayvon. Now what?
We are all in this world for a limited time. Once a day is over, there is no getting it back. We have no absolute control over man made laws that are flawed. But we do have the ability control our emotions and our thoughts. We can choose to ‘react’ or be ‘proactive’ in situations. We can choose to walk in Faith or respond in fear and anger. We can choose to relive painful moments in our mind or create new moments of joy.
No one can offend you without your consent.
Let’s not be offended.. lets learn and grow.
Let’s Learn from this.. like we learned from
Oscar Grant, Michael Griffith, Sean Bell and many others who died a death they didn’t deserve.
Let’s learn from this and grow from this. Let’s heal.
Not trying to preach.. but
Jesus Christ suffered and died a death that He didn’t deserve as well.
Yes, The RIGHTEOUS Christ died for UNRIGHTEOUS men.
It’s ok to hurt right now. It’s time.
Rest In Peace Trayvon.
