(from Ronald Rolheiser, “Sacred Fire”)
-
Live in gratitude and thank your creator by enjoying your life.
-
be willing to carry more and more of life’s complexities with empathy.
-
Transform jealousy, anger, bitterness, and hatred rather than give them back in kind.
-
Let suffering soften your heart rather than harden your soul.
-
Forgive—those who hurt you, your own sins, the unfairness of your life, and God for not rescuing you.
-
bless more and curse less!
-
Live in more radical sobriety.
-
Pray, affectively and liturgically.
-
Be wide in your embrace.
-
Stand where you are supposed to be standing, and let God provide the rest.
