    Opening eyes

    Dear God

    Please help us to remember that the jerk who cut us off in traffic last night is a single mother who worked nine hours that day and is rushing home to to cook dinner, help with home work, do the laundry and spend a few precious moments with her children.

    Help us to remember that the pierced, tatooed, disintrested young man who couldnt make change is a worried 19 year old college student, balancing his apprehension over final exams with his fear of not getting his student loans for the next semester.

    Remind us, Lord, that the scary looking bum, begging for money in the same spot everyday is a slave to addictions that we can only imagine in our worst nightmares.

    Help us to remember that the old couple walking annoying slow through the store aisles and blocking our shopping progress are savoring this moment, knowing that, based on the biopsy report that she just got back last week, this will be the last year that they go shopping together.

    God, remind us each day that, of all the gifts you give us, the greatest gift is love. It is not enough to share that love with those we hold dear.

    Open our hearts not to just those who are close to us, but to all humanity. Let us be slow to judge and quick to forgive, show patience, empathy and love.

    Amen

    Wow. After spending my Saturday afternoon fighting traffic and masses of people, I was so irritated! This just put it all into perspective. Thanks lethalsoul.

    Dear God

    Please help us to remember that the jerk who cut us off in traffic last night is a single mother ....oh wait...no...it was in the morning...and she was yammering incessently and laughing....and not only did she cut me off, but then she stopped in the middle of the road...all this because she was on her CELL PHONE!

    Help us to remember that the pierced, tatooed, disintrested young man who couldnt make change is a worried 19 year old college student....oh wait....I was a worried 19 year old college student once.....no damned excuse. Maybe he should spend less money on his tattoos and more money on his textbooks.

    Remind us, Lord, that the scary looking bum, begging for money in the same spot everyday is a slave to addictions ..... oh...wait....where's he going? He's one of those "jobless" bums that lives in a friggin CONDO!

    Help us to remember that the old couple walking annoying slow through the store aisles and blocking our shopping progress are savoring this moment, knowing that, based on the biopsy report that she just got back last week, this will be the last year that they go shopping together.....unfortunately they drive the same way they shop and almost killed me on my way in. Great....take out a few on your way out.

    God, I'm not judging....but you need to do some housecleaning.

    Amen
