GRACIOUS LIVING

"Make me an instrument of your peace."

~ The Prayer of St Francis ~

Gracious living is being patient with delays, being grateful for the generosity of others, being slow to anger and quick to forgive, and being authentically self-expressed. Flexibility is part of it, and listening from the heart; having compassion, and remembering that whatever we feel inclined to condemn in others, we have likely done ourselves.
     We live in  a rushing world that's alive and pulsing with judgment and condemnation. Let's not add to it. Let's be light energetically, and balmy, like a gentle breeze on a tropical beach instead of a pounding and punishing dust storm.

I show up with love and forgiveness in my heart.
