It doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t judge others or expect never to be judged ourselves. It does mean that we should apply the same measure of kindness and consideration of circumstances to others as we would wish them to apply to us.
One of the things I appreciate about the ups and downs of it all is that UP is both a grand thing entirely and a tough old slog or a concern, and DOWN is both a breezy joyride and a depressing turn of events or a concern.
I’m on the 2023 roller coaster. Wheels clank against the rails as we climb up, up up. I can’t wait to see what’s on the other side of the crest of the track. I’ll do my best to throw up my arms, shriek, and enjoy the ride.
A happy person doesn’t need to be merry at all. Happiness is sitting at peace in the moment and being grateful for what is. Happy Christmas.
Here’s your challenge for the day. Turn some hate into love. You might laugh, and you’ll for sure find some gratitude.
