In Her Shoes

Miriam (Mary’s mom) was explaining the meaning of a quote by Renford Reese on a Starbucks cup… The Way I see it #294

Insensitivity makes arrogance ugly; empathy is what makes humility beautiful.

Trying to describe what “empathy” means, Miriam said, “It’s like being in someone else’s shoes and feeling what they feel…”

Mary responds, “Oh, I know. So it’s like I try my friend’s shoes on, and if it hurts I’ll tell her not to wear them.”

Just Check the Internet!

Mary was wondering about life and death… and whether people take turns in heaven being reincarnated on earth then going back up to heaven. Her mom told her, “It’s possible but no one knows for sure”. To which Mary responded.. “Just check the internet!”
