May the stories we tell teach us who we are - and who we can become.

As I have watched the events in Minneapolis unfold the last few days I have wondered & prayed about how I should respond. Below are my thoughts. I hope you read the whole thing because the final thought is most important. Romans 12:21 ππ½
βI am not who I think I am; I am not who you think I am. I am who I think you think I am.β -Charles Cooley
Our identities are often sought in a perception of a perception. Maybe thereβs a better place to look.
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew
This struck me today:
"What gets sacrificed in your all-out race for success?"
Progress is wonderful; and sometimes blinding. What/who is my goal-oriented tunnel vision causing me to neglect?
Not sure if anything has cultivated my maturity, expanded my empathy, and focused my intentions in the past year as much as @RadiusChurchLA podcast. If you find yourself stuck, give it a listen.
