This is Marie T. Russell, co-publisher of InnerSelf.com, wishing you a day of finding common ground with others (today and every day).
COMMENT BY MARIE: We sometimes think we are so different from others... but really we are all the same. Human beings wanting to love and be loved. So if we just start there, with Love for our fellow humans, then we will find our common ground and be able to live in harmony.
InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration
December 5, 2024
The focus for today is:
I find common ground with others,
the place where we can meet in the heart.
Today's inspiration was written by Joyce Vissell:
It is important in life to honor differences, whether these be friends, coworkers or family members. So much can be learned from this practice.
Perhaps there is someone in your life where differences keep you separated. Perhaps you could honor these differences and find the commonality between the two of you, the place where you can meet in the heart.
And though you will never change that person, you can find ways in which you can connect deeply.

Heartfullness: 52 Ways to Open to More Love
by Joyce and Barry Vissell.
Heartfulness means so much more than sentimentality or schmaltz. The heart chakra in yoga is the spiritual center of the body, with three chakras above and three below. It is the balance point between lower body and higher body, or between body and spirit. To dwell in your heart is therefore to be in balance, to integrate the lower three chakras with the higher three.
