Tread tenderly upon life around you. There is room for all of us in life. We are each an ember of the mind of god and we are each sent to illumine the other through the dark places of life to sanctuaries of truth and peace where God can be God for us because we have relieved ourselves of the ordeal of being god ourselves. We are called to be kind, gentle, and calm--never smothering the other.
There is a great paradox of being kind and gentle to those with whom we do not agree--they will find we are easy to be around, and in time, they may follow the teaching we live out in our lives.
