Love, Justice, & Generosity

Love is messy, justice is true compassion, and gratitude breeds generosity.

A thought on Love:

It’s messy. Love can’t be contained by right or wrong. There will be high and low moments. It will leave you in the clouds and in the dirt. Nothing you do will leave you more fulfilled and cost you more. Love is always worth it.

A thought on Justice:

August 28th, 2020 - MLK Jr. Memorial on the 57th Anniversary of "I Have a Dream Speech"

“We are called to play the Good Samaritan on life’s Jericho roadside; but that will be only an initial act. One day the whole Jericho Road must be transformed so that men and women will not be beaten and robbed as they make their journey through life. True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar; it understands that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring”

Martin Luther King Jr. - Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community?

A thought on Generosity:

Gratitude breeds generosity. By acknowledging what we are grateful for in our lives, we move from a mindset of not having enough to one of abundance and overflow which allows us to think more clearly on how we can give to others. Time, treasure, and talent. There are many ways for us to practice generosity with the people around us.

A question for the day:
