"Acceptance is the universal currency of real friendship...It does not warp or shape a person to be anything other than what they are."
~ Sister Joan Chittister
I love this quote. And I love this women. I've had the good fortune of attending retreats at the Benedictine Monastery in Erie, PA where she and other wise, loving, beauty-full and inspiring women live.
About this quote...today, let's put it into practice as best we can
with friends and family alike. Let's simply love and accept all others as best we can...ourselves too.
With love for you,
Charlene
PS - An update about the missing mini muffin tin...it came back to me as one of you wrote and predicted! It turned out that someone was protectively holding it until the owner claimed it. I've experienced several blessings since letting it go in that Secret Santa/Pay It Forward way. Wishing many blessings for you today and every day as we each heal, grow, and awaken on this journey of human
living.
