I’ve often been told that in this life we may never see the seeds we’ve planted come to fruition but to keep planting anyway. That is what we are called to do.
So, when I received a call from a girlfriend in distress, I gave her my undivided attention. It turns out her son and his friends had mercilessly cyber-bullied a 13-year-old girl because of her ethnicity.
The taunts included a despicable racial epitaph once commonly used to ridicule people of Asian descent. The bullying, posted to Snapchat, escalated, wishing the girl to “burn like the bonfire” they were all attending.
