Sunday Saying by the Mayor of Oslo, Norway

The Mayor of Oslo, Fabian Stang was asked if Oslo needs more security and he responded …
.

“I don’t think security can solve problems. We need to teach greater respect.”

I like his response. I hope that it is true. I like to think that if everyone was given an understanding of respecting others, the world would be a safer place … and things like the tragedy that happened in Norway this week would not happen again.

Can everyone learn respect? And can respect for each other keep us safe?

     Id missed that and love it.  Im not sure we CAN all learn some days but I know it is incumbent upon us all to try and teach.
