For your consideration…
We have all worked these puzzles before. Of course, it is difficult because most of the image is the same.
We are given this example to remind us that we are human beings sharing this life experience. It is easy to spot the differences and pick at them. But at the very foundation of our lives, we are very much the same. When everything is peeled away and our soul is naked, it would be very hard to find our differences.
We are asked to look at our fellow humans and connect on those core values of our soul that we share.
Joseph Addison wrote, “If men would consider not as much wherein they differ, as wherein they agree, there would be far less of uncharitableness and angry feeling in the world.”
That is the HOPE/ And so it is.
Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…
-Affirm…“I am loved.”
-Remember…You are the keeper of the light. Wherever you go, there can be no darkness.
-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.
-Connect with what we have in common.
What made me smile yesterday…
-A beautiful day.
-Errands run.
-Catching up with Jackie and Alex.
-I ushered at Hill Auditorium for a Rhiannon Giddens concert. Whe was fabulous.
-A good book.
Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,
