The less we shake our heads and roll our eyes, the clearer we'll think, and the better we'll feel. Guard yourself against being constantly bewildered and appalled. Instead, live YOUR life proudly in a way that daily reflects the personal politics, creeds, internal values, and beliefs that you have about yourself, your family, your community, and the world. Have your own personal constitution of integrity, not one strictly derived from group associations. Be present to YOUR life: lived out openly, not just written down; practiced, not just preached. This is a hard lesson. I know from personal experience. ;-)
Nobody will ever care more about your life, and how to make it better, like you will. Gratitude IS the attitude, and it faithfully helps keep you above the fray of endless conflict; freeing you to speak more by example; displaying living proof of ideas that you could never put into words in the endless, and oft times, useless debate of our times. Actions will always speak louder than words, and actions are what we always need more of, beginning with Jeff Mosier.
