A Better Day

The praying thing worked. So, thank you to everyone who helped out.

It was a better day today even though I’m still exhausted and cranky. (Insomnia paid me a visit last night. Grrr.)

I realized something today: It is nearly impossible to hate someone once you get to know them. It’s easier to hate people when they are abstractions, acquaintances that you’ve only heard of or seen in passing. But once you’ve connected with someone, gotten to know them even just a little, it’s hard not to feel some compassion for them.

Somehow I had forgotten that basic truth.
