I've just seen the below quote on a Facebook group, and if you replace "sisterhood" with "harmony on Fab" and "women" with "people", I think it's rather apt for here, especially in the light of recent threads about the less than pleasant behaviour that some people choose to exhibit.
We're all different, and if we embrace those differences we'd see that there is a wealth of knowledge and support available on this forum.
¨Sisterhood is the phenomenon that occurs when women quit seeing each other as mirrors, or reflections of themselves, and start seeing each other as one-of-a-kind works of art. Sisterhood happens when women view each other as deep wells of support and inspiration—as teammates—instead of competitors. Sisterhood happens between women who are secure enough to stop being afraid of each other; who do not feel that another woman's different life choices are a judgment of her own choices. Sisterhood happens when we become curious instead of defensive about our differences. Sisterhood does not require the same beliefs or thoughts or political parties or churches. Peace is not about becoming the same; it's about becoming okay with being different. There is so much untapped power in sisterhood.¨

It's a positive post! Embrace the positivity and get shot of that negativity!

"Absolutely love this  we can learn so much from listening and considering things that are outside of our understanding. Empathy and kindness are wonderful things x"
We really can. You've posted some lovely threads lately, one of which helped me a great deal when I'd had to deal with something really shitty at work. I wish that more people could realise that kindness doesn't cost anything, but can reap great rewards. |

Yes! It's something I've said many times before - about the importance of lifting and supporting each other. Differences can co-exist happily if people acknowledge and accept them. Great post OP. x |

"Wouldn't it be nice?
Reminds me of The Beloved's song.
The video isn't a million miles away from Fab either.

Why have I never seen that video? Some good poses to try for Fab photos on there  |
