“It really helps if we can respect each other's perspectives. That alone can get us past so many impasses. Sometimes it can even help us find a new possibility we hadn't seen before; but even if not, sometimes it can help us at least see the other person's rationales; but even if not, sometimes it can help us just accept that another way of seeing it, of doing it, exists, functions, is effective for someone, even if not for us, even if we can't understand it. It really helps if we can respect each other's perspectives. But sometimes we can't. Then it really helps if we can trust each other's intentions, know that we want the best for each other as much as for ourselves even if we disagree on how to get there. It really helps if we can trust each other's intentions. But sometimes we can't.” LovePossibilityTrustPerspectiveRespectAdversityIntentionAcknowledgeDisagreementRespect The Mist Author:Shellen Lubin
“Trust and respect. Necessary elements to finding a way through. But sometimes we can't. And when we can't-- when the mist is so thick that we can't even see our own hands-- no less the other person's heart-- sometimes we must be still. I must be still.” LoveHeartFaithFamilyTrustRespectSalvationStillnessFogRespect The Mist Author:Shellen Lubin
