RE: "All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them." #LightTheWorld day 13

Luke 6 vs 31

''And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them.''

Eph 4 vs 2a

'' With all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love.''

Firstly,i want to say to you @gavvet to keep up this wonderful work. Your posts are an inspiration to me and to many more.

You know there is so much more to this saying.

“Treat others how you want to be treated.”

This saying goes far beyond simply being kind to people, or going out of your way to be available or helpful to those in need. Yes, you would want others to assist you in a bind or be pleasant even in an unfavorable circumstance. But there are many ways to create equality in your world that may go completely unnoticed by others. It's really just about adjusting your views and attitudes.

Instead of just treating others the way you would want to be treated, think about others the way you would want to be thought of. Feel about others the way you would want others to feel about you. Speak to others the way you would want to be spoken to or spoken of.

Focus less on punishing those who cross you or others and choose to guide them into a better frame of mind. Teach them not only the error of their ways, but the error in their thinking. This is not a lesson in condescension, or even conversion, but a way to understand the progression from thought to action. If someone believes he is doing the right thing by trying to control another or become invasive in another's life, first try to understand how that person feels his actions will get him from a desire to a result. Then, help him evaluate the consequences and perhaps choose a better way to achieve his goals and consider the goals of others. Always be open to seeing the other side as well, you may learn something.

Thanks and God bless.
