He lives in a small world

For years I drove around the coal mine in North Dakota doing my job inspecting the mine with a good friend. He has been called to the great beyond, but one saying he had that I always liked was "He lives in a small world".  The world is not small unless you have a small mind.  You can stretch your mind.  Kadizzle is on his second leisurely day at a jungle resort in Belize.  Life moves at such a slow comfortable pace, it is pretty close to paradise. You want something they bring it to you.  They address Kadizzle as Mr. Mike.  Mr. Mike would you like some cream?  The people here are all so nice, and so much fun to talk to.  Each day Kadizzle tries to stretch his mind by learning about the lives of these people. They are all striving. They want education, they want to make life better. They love their children, and they seem to be happy.

How much good would it do for the closed mind crowd to get out and see everyone is not the same. Everyone does not want the world you want.  Everyone is on this planet, and it belongs to everyone.  What if all the right wing haters that worship Donald Trump went out and met the rapist and robbers that populate Donald Trump's world. Once they saw them would their minds open up, or would they still see the world from that frightening little place where they live?
