Be Kind

My friend, Rev. Il Sun "PK" Kim, pastor of the Knoxville Korean Presbyterian Church, shared this with me the other day. I thought it was great, so I'm sharing it with you!

As we try to figure out how to ease back into our life together, please remember:

🛑 Some people don’t agree with the state opening.... that’s okay. Be kind.
🏡 Some people are still planning to stay home.... that’s okay. Be kind.
🦠 Some are still scared of getting the virus and a second wave happening....that’s okay. Be kind.
💰 Some are sighing with relief to go back to work knowing they may not lose their business or their homes....that’s okay. Be kind.
👩🏾‍⚕️Some are thankful they can finally have a surgery they have put off....that’s okay. Be kind.
📝 Some will be able to attend interviews after weeks without a job....that’s okay. Be kind.
😷 Some will wear masks for weeks....that’s okay. Be kind.
💅🏻 Some people will rush out to get the hair or nails done.... that’s okay. Be kind.
❤️ The point is, everyone has different viewpoints/feelings and that’s okay. Be kind.
We each have a different story. If you need to stay home, stay home. But be kind .
If you need to go out, respect others when in public and be kind!
Don’t judge your fellow humans because you’re not in their story. 

We are all in different mental states than we were months ago. 

So remember, be kind.

Grace and peace...
