​30 Weeks to Oneness
Thank you to everyone for your support of our children and program. As we prepare to move into the second half of the year. I have a deep burden for family. Celebrated in June each year, National Reunification Month recognizes the people and efforts around the country that help families to stay together. The trauma that family separation causes to children and parents is immeasurable and often permanent. Ergo, I’ve been compelled to encourage us over the next 30 weeks which will take us to the end of the year. This 30 week planner allows us to concentrate on one item each week of the month to increase stewardship of our families’ love and our responsibility to them. By applying truths over the weeks and months we hope to create a pattern in our lives that will earn us deeper respect for our children and cultivate deeper levels for love of our spouse or significant other.

Week 4. Appreciation

7/19/2021

0 Comments

 
Appreciation – The expressing of thanks, praise or commendation. Recognizing accomplishment or effort of others. Who does not want to feel appreciated? I want to believe that all of us do. So why is this a need, as it pertains to Oneness? The fact of the matter is, this is one of the most misunderstood feelings that humans have. What am I speaking too? As it pertains to appreciation, some may feel unappreciated while the person being accused of not appreciating, feels that they are showing appreciation. Thus, we have discussions of whether a person does or doesn’t. Let’s see if we can bridge the gap and gain a mutual understanding that will help us to show our loved ones that we appreciate them while helping them to feel they are appreciated. First appreciation is the recognition and enjoyment of the good qualities of someone or something by obtaining a full understanding of those qualities, which leads to the expression of admiration, approval, and/or gratitude towards them in a way that is acceptable and palatable for them. I believe that we sometimes miss the expression because we may not be showing our appreciation in ways that others want to receive it. A husband can give his wife flowers as a token of appreciation and most of us may agree that this was a show of appreciation. If his wife prefers chocolates instead of flowers, she may very well not feel appreciated especially if she’s expressed that she loves chocolates. This week let’s look to express praise, thanks and our appreciation in ways that will look to grow the bond in our relationships. If we don’t know what makes our loved ones feel appreciated, let’s have that conversation to inquire what might make our love one feel appreciated. Our love language may not speak theirs. As it pertains to appreciation, our love may need to be bilingual. ​
