But think of me when all is well with you again, and do me the kindness of mentioning me to Pharaoh, so as to free me from this place. (Genesis 40:14)
Wilson Mizner once said, “Be nice to people on your way up because you might meet them again on your way down.” Or just be nice to people because you have no idea what they are going through. Or better, just be nice to people.
People do all sorts of things that annoy, frustrate, even anger us. At that moment we all have a choice to make. As Joseph reminds those with whom he is incarcerated, we are all in this together. Our circumstances may vary a bit, yet we are all in this same rat race. Understanding our commonality is the first step to recognizing our shared humanity.
Unfortunately, due to lack of attendance the workshop in developing your own personal philosophy is looking for a new time and platform. Please let me know if you would prefer a different time and if you would prefer it to be held on zoom.
