one thing

i have learned today:

slow down, and be sensitive

in more detail… you never know what someone may be going through at any time, no matter how well you know them, or how often you see them. i bumped into a friend this morning and razzed him about his indecision on attending my birthday party next month. then he shared a very serious prayer request with me. and although this person knows me well enough to know i intended no harm in my incessant probing, if i would have taken the time to say, “hey, what’s up. how are you anyway?” i bet you a little more of the Spirit would have shown, and a little less of me.

so…i am going to continue to work on being less cynical. less sarcastic. and a little more sensitive.
