Privilege

Sharing privilege as wealth is generosity.
Sharing privilege as power is leadership.
Sharing privilege as education is opportunity.
Sharing privilege as mentoring is giving yourself.
Sharing privilege as friendship is enriching.
Sharing privilege as humility is God’s work.

Privilege is not a currency of less and more. Properly considered, it increases as it is shared and perverted when it is as a blunt instrument. It is legitimate when it is legitimately earned and false when it is simply taken as a right.
