[quote="Lordy x2" pid='358' dateline='1597786566'] [img]https://spiritualcleansing.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/The-enemy-is-fear.-We-think-it-is-hate-but-it-is-fear..jpg[/img] [color=#000000][size=medium][font=arial]Gandhi coined the term Satyagraha, or truth-force, which means to [b]insist on the truth[/b]. The heart and soul of Satyagraha is resistance to any form of wrong-doing or unfreedom, and ranges from non-co-operation to civil disobedience – bound only by the limits set by non-violence.[/font][/size][/color] [color=#000000][size=medium][font=arial][b]First, you have to find your truth.[/b][/font][/size][/color] [color=#000000][size=medium][font=arial][b]Then you have to stand by it.[/b][/font][/size][/color] [color=#000000][size=medium][font=arial][b]And be willing to stand up for it.[/b][/font][/size][/color] [color=#000000][size=medium][font=arial]One guy who showed no fear in standing up for his truth is Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac, who neither knelt nor wore a Black Lives Matter shirt, instead standing for the anthem while wearing his jersey. He said:[/font][/size][/color] [color=#000000][size=medium][font=arial][i]"I believe that Black Lives Matter. A lot went into my decision, and part of it is, I thought that kneeling or wearing the Black Lives Matter t-shirt doesn’t go hand-in-hand with supporting Black lives. So I felt like, just me personally, what I believe is taking on a stance that, I do believe that Black lives matter, but I just felt like it was a decision that I had to make, and I didn’t feel like, putting that shirt on and kneeling, went hand in hand with supporting Black lives. I believe that for myself, my life has been supported by gospel, Jesus Christ, and everyone is made in the image of God and that we all forge through God’s glory.[/i][/font][/size][/color] [color=#000000][size=medium][font=arial][i]"I think when you look around, racism isn’t the only thing that plagues our society, that plagues our nation, that plagues our world, and I think coming together on that message that we want to get past not only racism but everything that plagues as us as a society, I feel like the answer to that is gospel."[/i][/font][/size][/color] [color=#000000][size=medium][font=arial]Isaac’s jersey sales have since skyrocketed all the way to second in ‘most jerseys sold in the entire NBA’, behind only Los Angeles Lakers superstar and NBA poster boy LeBron James.[/font][/size][/color] [color=#000000][size=medium][font=arial]He seen the limitations imposed on and passed on through herd mentality and was brave enough to break away from the herd.[/font][/size][/color] [/quote]
