GRATITUDE FRIDAY
Are You Too Full of Your Own Opinions to Be Grateful?
With an empty cup, one can see more clearly
Spirit, help us to be friendly and kind, knowing that my opinions are merely that — my opinions. Too many of my opinions only close the door to being open to others. Help me, Spirit.
Have you ever witnessed a cultural ceremony different than your own? Have you ever visited a friend in a new country or city?
Once, I visited someone in a very different country. She wanted to take me to all the places she normally traveled to so that she could experience her city with new eyes. I was so taken aback by that. I learned so much from her posture during that experience.
It helped me refocus my heart when I hosted visitors in my city. Instead of taking them to see all the tourist attractions, if they didn’t know what they wanted to do, I took them to places I always went to.
