What You Serving Up

Compassion, mercy, forgiveness, and love are best served with a dish of hope. What are you serving up today?

For many Khan in Star Trek 2 is their hero as he said to then Admiral James T. Kirk; “Ah, Kirk, my old friend. Do you know the Klingonproverb that tells us revenge is a dish that is best served cold? … It is very cold in space.”  Many people are only looking at what they can get from you or do to you. When you are revenge minded you are only hurting yourself. If you do take your revenge out and hurt someone; then you have hurt yourself and them. Why is it so difficult to show compassion, mercy, forgiveness and love? Those that hurt you are the ones that need it the most. Hurting people; hurt people.  It’s easy to want to be get even or hurt someone; anyone can do that. However, it’s time that we stop living by our feelings and emotions. Take the road less traveled and show that you are not like most people. Show compassion, mercy, forgiveness, love and hope. Be the person that makes a difference in their life.  Do you have someone that has hurt you and you plan revenge dishes for them? How about a change of menu. Would you serve them a warm dish of compassion, mercy, forgiveness, love and hope? What would you like to be served by the ones you have hurt?
