Art of Reconciliation

Art of Reconciliation is that being a peace with oneself is difficult; being at peace with others is more. Art of reconciliation. Human nature compels as to be self centered, which should be so. God gave as the facilities to be good, but we in return neglect them because we sometimes perceive world and other people as different. And as such would do as evil. Sometimes we judge easily because of another person’s appearance or lack of it. This bad human habit distances our selves from God.
One Saturday for the kids is free and no class, my husband and I decided to go to the beach to unwind and kids will enjoy their weekends. As my kids were playing by the seashore my husband and I saw an old woman walking along talking something to her self while picking up every now and then putting them to her bag.
We felt uneasy of the old woman’s presence. I call my kids. When the old woman passed by, she smiled with us. Her gesture was not returned and she was looked at suspiciously. Unknown to us the old lady had devoted her life picking up bits of glass from the beach so that children wouldn’t cut their feet.
Good deed do not necessarily come with good looks, and in the same breath, evil intentions does not necessarily come dressed in rags. Let as not judge lest we be judged. Let us not be prejudice, lest we become prejudice ourselves.
Sometimes we look too highly to our selves. We think of other as nuisance or harmful to our existence without realizing that we could be the same pest to them; so what exactly the art of reconciliation; It is simple, “Love yourself less, and love others more.” It is the only way we can be at peace with everyone and ultimately with ourselves.
