The connection that exists among us is beyond our comprehension. We rely on our ability to distinguish and categorize things so much that we lose sight of the similarity of things. At our core, we all come from the same place. Our essence was designed by the same creator. We just manifest that creation in a different fashion. We would not look at varied bouquet of flowers and criticize the orchids for not looking like roses or the sunflowers for not taking on the same color as the daffodils. Why do we look at our outer differences and say one is better than the other, or better looking, or more valuable? Are we not all flowers? Are we not all a contribution of beauty to the world in our fashion? We all come from the same place and all require sun, water, and nourishment to live and thrive. God calls us to relate to each other with the familiarity of our own selves. The reason we want so much to make others the other is because we see in them things we do not want to see in us. This is also part of the design to become more of who we truly are by practicing love. Love is action, it is a way of being, it is who we are. If we are be the love that we are, we are to love all. That means all of ourselves–good and bad and all of others–approved of or not. My prayer for us today is that we be open to being the love that we are and connecting with the other as familiar. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
Be With Familiarity!
