It makes a lot of sense, especially healthcare after a loss. Lots of food for thought as I live with my elderly, recently widowed, father. Thanks for your thoughts and taking the time and energy to write them down.

To the point about differences you shared in #3… How we’re all similar, but not the same is fascinating. It can help us connect, sympathize, and even sometimes empathize to some degree. It can also cause friction, misunderstanding, and negative emotions when people behave differently than we do. For most, if not all, things, there is not one approach better than another, just different ways of doing things. Better and best is more related to the circumstances and people involved, which means nuance is most needed. I think that’s why grace is so important. We all need a lot of it and should be better about giving it.
