Believing what we know to be true, it's sometimes difficult not to judge others. We may feel so strongly about our beliefs that instead of learning more about the person, we jump in and begin our practiced spiel. We reject other cultures, religions, and ways of life in the name of what we believe to be true. Beneath our smiles and grand gestures of friendship, we are strategically planning on how we can teach you a better way. By continuing on this path, we will be rejecting the unique value others bring to our lives. It's not our responsibility to change people to our ways, but to live a life of acceptance. Today, be observant. Be aware of how comfortable or uncomfortable you are with people who are different from yourself. Remember there is a purpose in life for us all and it's up us to live a life of purpose.
We may not understand other cultures, but we can respect them...
