I often wonder how people can get so angry,so deep in their own belief that they become deaf to anything that may differ from their beliefs.I’ve often been told that I’m too open-minded,listening to others'viewpoints so openly that they become my own.Maybe that comes from my practice of actively listening to others.It means that I do really hear them instead of responding only out of politeness.Maybe it's becau I was brought up by parents who didn’t necessarily speak to me about respecting others but modeled it for me through their own actions.They treated everyone equally,from what I remember,never looking down upon others becau they were different from us.
As I rai my daughters,I try my best to show them love and understanding in all situation
s. When they misbehave, talk back, or break the rules,I'll lovingly analyze the reasons behind their behaviour.I'll be tolerant(宽容的)towards their differing opinions and become open and curious about their ideas.And I'll be mindful of how I treat and speak to others,showing equal respect to everyone.
My expectation is that if I show my daughters unconditional love and acceptance,they’ll learn to show the same love to others.I hope that they will not e difference as a threat,but as a way to add richness to their very existence.It's beautiful to live in a world filled with so many differences.
So,as I write this,welcoming my cond daughter to my family,I'm fully aware that change begins with how I act and what decisions I make.Every generation carries its own t of problems.All we have control over is how we respond to tho problems.This is what I will teach my girls:how to control their own emotional world;how to hold onto love as well as their beliefs and values;how to remember that hate and anger are never the answer and that tolerance and love will always take them further in life.
