What is Grace?

The power of one word could change history; if not world history, at least your own. 

To me, this speaks volumes about how people could better their lives by one five-character word, GRACE. This single word could stop a war instead of starting one, could soften the heart of a parent of a gay child, could stop a family feud before members are no longer around to make amends. 

What have you done today to share grace with others?

Many years ago, I found the following on a bottle of shampoo and shower gel distributed by philosophy®. 

Grace

Life is a classroom, we are both student and teacher. Each day is a test. And each day we receive a passing or failing grade in one particular subject: grace. 

Grace is compassion, gratitude, surrender, faith, forgiveness, good manners, reverence, and the list goes on. It's something money can't buy, and credentials rarely produce.

Being the smartest, the prettiest, the most talented, the richest, or even the poorest, can't help. Being a humble person can and being a helpful person can guide you through your days with grace and gratitude. 

Until the next time...
