letter from customer

-

Most of you know that I'm Hispanic, a woman and a lesbian (in that order) , that I have been with the same woman for almost, if not more, 30 years, that we have 2 children, 3 granddaughters and that we own a gifts  internet business.

 
We sell on Amazon, Ebay and we have our own website. I love my business as much as I love my family, not only because it brings me money but also because it is something that I love.
 

I try to please my customers 100% of the time, but sometimes is hard, I received this email today

 
"I have been ordering a wall crucifix on Amazon from you for some religious artwork I make. The last order you included a card with your website. I just checked it out and will probably not be ordering from you in the future. I am glad you offer religious gifts but the Gay Pride items celebrating gay marriage are offensive to me and the Church's teachings. Please reconsider these items and stick with the Godly items.

Thanks"

 I ask this person what are the Church teachings?  his point of view of course

 This is mine

Jesus commands us to love one another as He loves. If God is impartial and loves us with impartiality, then we need to love others with that same high standard.


What do you think?

It is your blood, you don’t turn your back on family because blood is thicker than water. I grew up listening to that phrase. It used to be that family secrets were hidden behind closed doors and sealed lips. There was an unwritten law that you don’t make waves or you will find yourself without a life raft, (and yes, there are Cubans in the family, but they did not come to the states in a boat). Some of us dared to question, dared to want more. Why? Because something deep inside was telling us that there was more to life than loving them because they were part of the family unit. Do I love my family? Yes, but I don’t have to like them; I don’t have to accept inappropriate behavior or give up my values to accommodate theirs. Being family doesn’t excuse you from being compassionate nor does it give you the right to treat people disrespectfully. Take the family part out and ask yourself “would I accept this behavior from a stranger?” Probably not, but you do not risk losing someone’s love...

Wednesday, my favorite day on TV

-
Wednesdays was my favorite day on TV, the best shows with the best actors, but these days when it is not "the caravan" "Russia Gate" Bush's funeral or Trump's lawyer who goes to jail on Wednesday it has become a nuisance. Today I did something that I don't like doing at night, watch the news. And to top it off the channel stuck was Fox News and commentator Tucker Carlson. Both, e and his guest, ere talking that the United States is envied in the whole world by its constitution and especially by the First Amendment. For those who do not know what the First Amendment says, among some things it says that the government can not get involved in the religion we choose, that we have the right to say what we want or freedom of expression, freedom of the press, etc It will be true that one can say what he wants or is this a lie? I sincerely believe that all this is depending on who says it, when it says it, to whom it is said and especially the co...
