"There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground." ~ Rumi
A friend emailed me this quote, perhaps written by Gandhi but online it says Rumi, both holy in their own right. Both are able to kiss the ground.
I have had a full day of seeing how people kiss the ground differently. At the very beginning of the day, I was reminded that two people’s minds working together create a better outcome. By the end of the day, I acknowledge that seeing how people respond differently is a blessing. One of the reasons that I love this particular photo, is that the African Sisters who kept this tabernacle in their convent chapel, could worship a God who held up half the world on Her head. It made so much sense to me as I stood in awe in front of it.
May I always be ready to kiss the ground in my own way while respecting those who kneel and kiss it differently.
Peace,
Suzanne
