IT FELT LOVE

IT FELT LOVE

How did the rose ever open its heart

And give to this world all its beauty?

It felt the encouragement of light

Against its being,

Otherwise, we all remain too frightened.

Poem by Hafez

REFLECTION:

  • Love, like light, is transformative. 
  • What encouragement can you offer… love can you show another who may be frightened.
  • Let love and encouragement flow as we approach the holidays. Give another this gift so they many share their gifts and talents in the absence of fear.

COME ALIVE

Don’t ask what the world needs.  Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.  Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.

Quote by Howard Thurman

REFLECTION:

  • What does make you come alive?
  • What is preventing you from doing it? 
  • How can you make time to do that thing that makes you come alive?
  • Days are ticking… do it!

LEARN THEIR STORY…

An enemy is someone you have not learned their story yet.

Quote by Hedy Schleifer – Crossing The Bridge Movie

REFLECTION:

  • What you see on the outside is not necessarily what is going on on the inside… We all have a story.  Have you taken the time to learn about another’s story.. especially someone you have issues with?
  • What if you could learn more about them?  Be curious and learn more…
