Tonight, I upset someone while driving. They followed me to a gas station and said some angry words. I wasn't sure what I had done wrong. I asked if they were okay and if there was anything I could do to help calm them down. They walked away angrily, and I wished them a good day. Normally, I wouldn't react this way, but as I've gotten older, I try to "Seek to Understand." I realized there was something else going on with them, and my driving wasn't the real issue.
45 minutes later, when I went back to my truck in the school parking lot, I found a note. It reminded me that you never know what someone is going through. It’s always important to seek to understand.
~Copied from QUORA
Oh, Master grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love with all my soul...
--------
Prayer of St. Francis (song)
Make me a channel of your peace
Where there is hatred let me bring your love Where there is injury, your pardon Lord And where there is doubt true faith in You
Make me a channel of your peace Where there is despair in life let me bring hope Where there is darkness only light And where there's sadness ever joy
Oh, Master grant that I may never seek So much to be consoled as to console To be understood as to understand To be loved as to love with all my soul
Make me a channel of your peace It is in pardoning that we are pardoned It is in giving to all men that we receive And in dying that we are born to eternal life
Oh, Master grant that I may never seek So much to be consoled as to console To be understood as to understand To be loved as to love with all my soul
Make me a channel of your peace Where there's despair in life let me bring hope Where there is darkness only light And where there's sadness ever JOY! ...

I do not care if it is true or if it is untrue I believe that Donald John is Lord and Savior, Very Tall, Most Handsome, Exceptionally Brilliant, and Lord & Savior. Any who say otherwise are filthy urchins.
