I Pray For You
I enjoy reading the words of others because they speak to how connected we are, and why we must look out for one another as much as possible. A simple word, phrase, quote or story left behind on a wall, street, sidewalk or bench, if written with good intentions and found by the right person, can be uplifting, healing, comforting and all inspiring.
Sadly, this is not always the case. There are periods when the tone is belligerent and caustic, leading to feelings of anger and disdain. At times the message can be sad, creating emptiness in the heart and tears in the eyes, and there we are left to wonder – Who is this person? How can I help him/her?
That’s where the power of prayer comes in handy, and no, I’m not talking religion. I do believe a person presenting with a caring disposition, heavy heart, and a purposeful soul can help others we are genuinely concerned about, and all it takes is the chant of good intentions. This is how a positive vibe is generated and forced out into the world, helping to restore humanity, and when the many come together in unison, I believe good things can happen (No. I know good things can happen!).
No matter what, I always try to imagine hope and meaning in all that I find, sharing it with the world when necessary, hoping others will savor the wisdom and ponder the significance, and for those times when what I read is less than kind, I send my prayer out on the wind, hoping it finds the target and thus generating a change of heart.
Haters don't really hate you. They hate themselves because you're a reflection of what they wish to be – strong, solid and confident, a human being with empathy and compassion. Be a humanist.
To the haters of the world, I pray for you every day. – paerki
