Look beyond ourselves

11/28/06 Our Father, hear our thanks for this day and the blessings that we have received and enjoy. Remind and help us to better share our gifts with others – to look beyond ourselves – to be more patient and tolerant and to be ever grateful for life in this nation. Amen

Look beyond ourselves on “Giving Tuesday” seems fitting. This pic was shot in my pink tiled bathroom…TMI?

Thinking of others starts early in the day, doesn’t it? As we dress and prepare mentally for our day, others, beyond our pink bathrooms will benefit. If my prayers are to be more tolerant and patient, may it be with a broader view than the stubborn head of hair staring back at me.

But, may I also be patient with “her”. God is not finished with “her” yet, either.
