Months

It’s Pride Month. June is officially pride month and has been apparently, but being 2019 I haven’t noticed previously but it’s the 50th anniversary.

Before I get myself into hot water, this is not about subjects of “months” black history month, pride month, women’s history/rights month etc.

My point is that we live in a world where we allocate 30 days for “awareness” on a subject and when it’s done, we’re on to something else. We pigeon hole things we should be aware about.

Let’s not give ourselves an excuse to wait to educate ourselves on a subject. We also shouldn’t wait for a particular month to respect or bring to light or recognize a particular issue going on.

Every day is women’s month, black history day, pride day, ALS day, Parksinsons day, domestic abuse day. I do get that in our world of bombardment, we need these days, but we don’t truly, need them, do we? Don’t wait to educate yourself.

Don’t wait to start changing things.
