BUILD A BRIDGE

You are currently viewing BUILD A BRIDGE

Beware of hating the man who hates.  Remember that you are here to help him lift off his yoke, not to boast that you stagger under one of a nobler design.

Quote from:  The Little Book of Forgiveness by D. Patrick Miller

REFLECTION:

  • With so much divisiveness,  whether it be political or in a relationships with family, friends or neighbors, how can you help someone lift the yoke of hatred toward you or another?  

  • Write about a time you were able to bridge a divide with another person or group. 

  • Take some time and reflect on the other person’s perspective.   How can you understand that viewpoint?  If appropriate engage in a dialogue with that person to find common ground and greater understanding.
