Live and Let Live


The quote for this week is by Thomas Murton: “The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.” I really like the message from this quote. Sometimes I find myself attempting to mold others to fit my expectations. This is very flawed thinking; I need to accept others as they are—quirks, eccentricities, habits—and all. Furthermore, I find myself adapting to the different groups I spend time with, when I should always just be me. BE YOUrself.
