Foreclosures :The biggest sin against humankind is not hate but indifference

349 views


As I have been growing as a Realtor, I have been discovering amazing personalities among the rest of people that I have met. One of them is Frances Flynn Thorsen.  She is a  Real Estate Marketing Strategist and CEO, Guru Social Media Strategist, Avid Blogger and Poet, Author, and more.  I admire in her, more than anything, her integrity and ethic levels, her love for justice and fairness.  She is helping our neighbors, our society and our country to be educated on matters that are essential for progress. I feel lucky to be among the people that can follow her closely.

"Dare to Dream" is the slogan in my website.  I know with so many foreclosures, it is difficult for some to do so.  It is sad to know that somehow we are contributors to the chaos around us.

I ask myself, can one really dare to dream and be oblivious of what happens around us. Why, if it is on our hands to help, we do nothing -remaining almost indifferent to the suffering of others?

We sometimes take the easy path. We look at everything from our comfortable chair, just as if other people's reality was only a fiction movie. We hear the news and we talk about it, detached from all responsibility and ready to find others to blame for it. 

How can we just sit back and blame those who are misleading consumers and taking advantage of homeowners in distress, if we have the tools and never use them!

Indifference is the worst enemy of Humankind.

As a Realtor I am ONE of those, who will always be an advocate for homeowners, after all I am a homeowner too, and if I would be in such a situation, I would expect someone to honestly try to help.

*GIVE THE BEST, EXPECT THE BEST*

It is our responsibility to help not only as a Realtor, but as a person, as a human, as a neighbor, as a citizen. How easy is to blame the leaders for chaos when we are contributing to it by remaining silent, lazy and indifferent to it.

This is the one of the reasons why I follow closely personalities like Frances Flynn Thorsen, because I find in their activism to help and protect, all what I want to do too.

Frances is giving this FREE class "Help Homeowners KEEP their Homes" which I am ready to take, and also hope that others will take it too!

Thank you!
