Admiration

What impresses us the most? Is it someone who is highly intelligent, or skilled in a physical sport, or someone famous? Is it someone with great power or riches? Perhaps there’s nothing wrong with being impressed with people who have achieved great success in these areas, but what about those who are kind, generous, humble, and have integrity? What about those who love greatly, laugh generously, or mend the broken? We might want to examine the people we admire and don’t admire. Each one is human and has flaws that they often try to hide from us and themselves. Let’s admire all equally and be less judgmental of those who seem less desirable.
