Day 15 - Reverence
To have reverence means that you have great admiration or respect for someone or something. As you move through this day, try to slow down and appreciate the little things.
Reflection
- Reverence for all life is fundamental to the eradication of the desire to cause harm in thought, word or deed.
- Today, focus on how beautiful the world and all the people in it are.
Action
- Write about an object or something of great beauty that makes you feel reverence.
- Why does it make you feel this way?
- Next time you face a challenge, how might recalling these people and things bring you strength?

"If you can't participate in someone else's good fortune and show them love. How can you get offended when they don't partake in yours. Good fortunes are made to be enjoyed. Like a old wise pimp will say "Don't hate, participate".
J. Wrice Sr.
“Mind the little things. Appreciate them. Revere them, too.”
