It is very sad to think about the ways in which humans strike
out and destroy life. Events occur,
words are spoken, misunderstandings happen, judgments are made, anger and
resentment are flamed into firestorms, pain is inflicted; it is certainly
discouraging and heartbreaking. Today I
choose to examine the judgments I make about the actions and words of myself
and others. Rather than holding on to
old hurts and bitterness, I am convicted to move towards forgiveness and
reconciliation. Instead of treating
myself with contempt and belittlement I will nurture self-acceptance and
open-mindedness within so I can pass it on to others. I intend to foster
kindness and respect in my interactions and seek to build up connection and
compassion. I refuse to be pulled into
others’ chaos and drama, however, will invite them into my peace.
