...in someone else's shoes?
It's an old adage. But ya know...it's relevant.
We all are subject to judgmental behavior, both given and received. It's part of our human wiring, to discriminate good from bad; right from wrong; unhealthy from healthy.
But wow...we also have a tendency to cling to our own worldview without compassion for the other side; to protect our "way of life" at the cost of any chance of understanding.
If we as humans are to rise to our spiritual potential, we have some learning to do. And that takes the courage to walk a mile in someone else's shoes, so we can build compassion and encourage love.
Love is not weak. It takes much more courage than hate.
Short and sweet today. But I hope it takes you deep.
What's the smallest thing you will do today to walk a mile in someone else's shoes?
