I don't want to be your friend.
You hate the thing I am, what I was born.
You hate the 'different' and the 'other',
This is what I choose to be:
This is what I choose to be:
Follower of my faith, any faith, non-believer.
Meat eater, wheat eater, gin lover, ant eater.
Lover of men/women, life - all living things,
Intolerant, yes - of intolerance.

Brilliant articulation of what many feel today. Simple yet powerful
Perfectly articulated, Gowri. So well said. What a dilemma, if people won't like you (or even kill you) because you were born different.
Beautifully articulated dear friend! �� Your simple yet powerful words eloquently convey what most of us feel. All religions recognize human beings as fundamentally equal and we should never forget that!
WOW! You just summed it up so well
Succint yet powerfully expressed. Specially loved the 'anteater' bit. Must have eaten quite a few inadvertantly myself...the ones that drowned in my cup of tea or ventured into a piece of cake!! No harm intended, of course.
Short and yes, sweet. And so very much what I feel (though I couldn't ever have expressed it as well)
Many thumbs up Gowri.
What a dull world it would be if we were all the same
I was brought up to be tolerant and respectful of my fellow creatures
Excellent. Highly needed. I stand with you. Hatred is fire 🔥. All fire burns and the result is always ash.
Very well articulated, Gowri, my friend. Have unfriended at least a hundred from my Facebook list. It is quite easy once you start :)
gin lover ... how did i miss that. terrific.
Always the best!
SO beautifully put, Gowri, as only you can. Loads of LOVE!!
Life is brutal. More power to your pen Gowri!
