How We Move Forward in These Times - Ten Tips

1. Remember the past and plan for the future.
2. Avoid letting anger cloud your thinking.
3. Celebrate victories and dismiss past losses.
4. Do not engage with those who do not think.
5. Breathe deeply, and think intensely.
6. Do not expect miracles. God has not been seen recently, if ever.
7. Support what is sensible and dismiss what is not.
8. Embrace those you love and shun those who would hurt you.
9. Allow time for leaders to undo wrongs and create change.
10. Do not demand vengeance. Work for justice.
