We Make Our Own Family

 
Sharing the same skin
ain't what makes you my kin
Doing the same good
is what makes you my blood

Rangers
Seals
Motorcycle clubs
Masons
Omegas

We come together
To fight the same fight
Might not look the same
But stand strong for a brother's rights

Can't judge a book by the cover
The Amish and Proud Boys may look alike and sport the same beards
But those two groups could not be more different

Rudyard Kipling may have come from the same place as Gandhi
But their words, and attitudes towards the people around them, were so very different

Some may say Michelle Obama and Candace Owens look similar
None who know either woman, would believe them, even remotely, sisters in philosophy

Donald Trump
Joe Biden
Physical commonality is undeniable
Yet, talk about "diametrically opposed"!!

We all are what we are
We choose to be what suits us best
Just cuz I look like another
Believing it true just creates a mess.

Not all that glitters is gold
Not all that looks dirty is unclean

Ask
Explore
Learn for oneself

Looking the same does not make you the same

If you've ever seen fire ants go to the wrong hill in a backyard
You know exactly what I mean
