For me, I have come to realize that I am always interested in the content of what you write and not so much of the grammatical side of things (because personally that's me too ;) ). Which actually just struck me in this moment of how you spoke about quality versus quantity. That feels to me like it also speaks to how we may relate to others - are we looking at the quality someone offers (i.e. someone wanting to be with you as the unique, talented, creative individual that you are)? or the quantity (i.e. are they "perfect" every time they show up in relation to me? do I feel they are looking for my "perfectness"?) and that's where I feel grace falls into place too. Can not only others have grace in relation with me - but can I have grace with myself too?<br /><br />I am just feeling such gratitude for you writing this Nicole. I feel that helps me remember the times and interactions I have had with you too. Some of them I realized I was not extending grace myself to you and maybe you didn't extend to me either AND as a result there has been a tremendous amount of growth. For that I just feel really thankful to have you continually be a part of my life - so thank you for you and your grace :) hannahgeaseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10424637141798886222noreply@blogger.com
