I love this!
These are the 2 which I need to borrow and incorporate:

Mantra: The truest thing about this person is that they are a beloved child of God. How can I uphold their belovedness here and now? How can I receive the image of God that they carry?

Mantra: I am never fully right and always partially wrong. What am I not seeing? Who else do I need to hear from?

Thanks for sharing!

Thank you. I am going to read and re-read these mantras until they become a part of my vocabulary, especially, “I am never all the way right, and always partially wrong.”

And I relate to being tempted to plan fulfilling things at the expense of what is beautiful right now. Chronic illness, funnily enough, has been a teacher on that one. There have been a lot of things I couldn’t plan or count on, and the blessing of that is a growing sense of, well right now is pretty lovely now that I pause to notice it. I also still deal with a lot of impatience and missing the moment!!! Thanks for your thorough, passion-filled and loving blog post.

I’m going to borrow that and start using it. I also want to be quicker to remember that I am not fully right and always partially wrong.

It is nice to see what you got from it and provides some helpful reminders for me too!

I also appreciate how well thought out and honest your values/ruts are and how you included a mantra to help get out of ruts. For me, reading those was helpful in providing additional ideas/perspectives for getting out of my own ruts.
