Be tender as you tender views and voice perspectives.
Be tender as you offer paths that some refuse (or fear) to take.
Be tender as you formulate your retorts to invectives.
Be tender even as you know how much’s at stake.
Be tender as you tender truth
As you hold fast to honest, fair objectives.
Do not lose heart
Even as some lose moral compass
And attempt to stain integrity
As disrespect.
