Some Discouraged Mounties...

Have been writing a lot more in my second Waterlily Story blog...and today I wrote about an RCMP division office where some gay officers used to be very involved in the secret police project....  For a while, it seems they've been embarrassed because things weren't going the way they expected, where I've been concerned; and they've been dragging their feet....  Many of the other police have wanted them to come on board--again--and to support the main effort....  I've also written about a past, American writer named Henry David Thoreau who wrote about "civil disobedience" in the face of wrongdoing by the government...and Thoreau had influenced a lot of people....  I believe he had an influence on the police project also, before they first got started, many years ago.... 

There was a psychologist I met once, who said, "If something is worth doing, it's worth doing poorly...!"  Too often we feel that if our efforts aren't perfect, we're failing and aren't worthwhile....  But this man said not to be discouraged, and to go forward even if things aren't 100%....  [But sometimes even our apparent mistakes, or misdeeds, can count for good....]

Note:  Have also written recently about a racist phrase that was used in children's play--a rhyme--and some friends and I used to say it when we were young....  And I wanted to make amends, as far as possible, and I sent a donation to the Black History Society, in Ontario.
