I think we come into trouble when we cease to think of people as such and choose to label them in order to enforce an "us, them" mentality... it makes it easier for us... no one likes to be thought of as a label- it's when we use individual's names and they, in turn, use ours, that we can really start helping each other. yeah... and stuff like that...Ryan P Freemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13880385121609917259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3964209863129451163.post-67825276089923820272010-08-13T12:03:04.631-05:002010-08-13T12:03:04.631-05:00This is a good way to look at people.

I think that Jesus emphasizes that when he commands people to love one another as yourself, because we don't know exactly what people have been through, but love is disarming to past angers or presuppositions. I believe it is one of the only tools that can honestly and truthfully get to the heart of who people really are and what they carry around in their hearts and minds with them everyday.Alzheimers Awarenesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298065626966697320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3964209863129451163.post-22680892321872158302010-08-09T17:20:22.234-05:002010-08-09T17:20:22.234-05:00Hey Ryan, your website is fantastic!

Anyway, I see you are a fellow New Mexican- God bless us. I left a comment for you on my blog. I see your comment today has a similar thread. "The spell must be unwound bit by bit, 'with backward mutters of a dissevering power'- or else not." That is worth meditating upon- thanks for the quote.<br />Blessings<br />BobPastor Bob Farmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10619343972779471005noreply@blogger.com
