Truth is, I love everyone that is a good person regardless of

Hear the words of Doja Cat, a voice of her generation, who declared with simplicity and power: “The truth is, I love everyone that is a good person regardless of what they look like, walk like, or who they love.” In this saying, she speaks not only of affection, but of a universal law—one older than nations, older than creeds—that the worth of a soul is measured not by the accidents of appearance, nor by the paths they tread, but by the goodness that dwells within. This is the cry of equality, the anthem of compassion, the very heartbeat of justice.

The origin of such words lies in the long struggle of humankind against division. For men have always been tempted to judge one another by outward signs—by skin, by gait, by tribe, by custom. In every age, these surface differences have been used to sow hatred and to justify cruelty. Yet voices have always risen to declare the higher law: that goodness of heart outweighs every outward mark. Doja Cat’s statement is a continuation of that timeless chorus, spoken in modern language, but echoing truths that prophets, poets, and sages proclaimed through the ages.

Consider the life of Martin Luther King Jr. He dreamed of a day when his children would be judged “not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” His vision mirrors the very essence of Doja Cat’s words. He stood against a world that exalted appearance over virtue and proclaimed instead the sovereignty of the inner self. Though he was struck down, his dream still lives, reminding us that the measure of a person is found in their goodness, not their surface.

Think also of Mahatma Gandhi, who taught that every human being, whether high-born or outcast, carried the same divine spark. He ate with the poor, walked among the untouchables, and shattered the walls of caste by his example. His creed was simple: to see beyond the external, to love the good wherever it was found. Gandhi’s life testifies that this teaching is not only a philosophy but a power that can move empires and set peoples free.

The lesson is plain, O seekers of wisdom: judge not by the eye, but by the heart. Outward forms are fleeting; appearances are deceiving. A crooked walk may hide a straight spirit. A face that differs from yours may shine with greater kindness. Love that does not fit your expectation may yet burn with purest loyalty. To honor only what looks familiar is to blind yourself to the breadth of humanity; to honor goodness wherever it appears is to live in the radiance of truth.

Yet beware, for this path is not easy. The world will tempt you to divide, to prefer your own, to fear the strange. But remember: all greatness is born of courage, and the greatest courage is to love without boundary. To embrace goodness wherever you find it is to walk the path of kings and saints, to dwell not in narrowness but in abundance.

Therefore, let your daily practice be this: look past the outer shell. When you meet another, ask not first what they look like, how they walk, or whom they love. Ask instead: are they just? Are they kind? Are they faithful in friendship, steadfast in truth? And if they are, then give them your love, for in loving them you honor the higher law that binds all humanity.

Thus remember Doja Cat’s wisdom: “The truth is, I love everyone that is a good person regardless of what they look like, walk like, or who they love.” Hold fast to this, and you will be free of the chains of prejudice, lifted above the illusions of difference, and bound to others by the eternal ties of goodness. In this way, you will live not only with love, but with majesty of spirit, shining with the light of truth.
