KEEP AN OPEN HEART AND MIND

Good morning everyone.  Happy Tuesday.  It is Tuesday right?  Of course it is.  The only people who lose track of the days are those who no longer have to report anywhere.  Those are the people who argue what day it is and never seem to get it right.  Monday?  No way.  It's Tuesday, etc. Not really a big deal or call for a major argument.

These days there is a lot more to argue about than if it is Tuesday or Wednesday.  Facebook has allowed all of us to share our expertise on just about every topic including a stranger's life.  Granted there are people who seek advice and we are more than eager to give it.  Good or bad its out there.

When you ask for advice be prepared to be irritated.  Be prepared to hear all kinds of wonderful and ridiculous things you should do to make your children eat more vegetables, get your dog to stop barking, remove gum from your hair and just about anything you can think of.  Opinions are rampant from the inane to the serious.  Politics is a hot topic and many have no fear in not only expressing their views but dissing the attitudes of another's point of view.

We can't all agree on everything but we must be civil and polite when we see or hear something we don't like.  Today's quote is, "And if I disagree with you I will still listen with a compassionate heart and an open mind and sincere respect."   Facebook has become a place where rudeness and nastiness is acceptable.  Disagreements have become heated and mean.

Our belief system stems from so many varied places therefore we arrive at conclusions based on our experiences.  Keep that in mind the next time you read a post that makes your blood boil.  All you can do is try your best to understand that it may come from a place completely foreign to you.  My quote today may have ruffled some feathers and that's perfectly OK.  I know it has been read with an open mind and a compassionate heart.


Have a wonderful Tuesday everyone! ~Love, Amy
