A Buddhist message for this Lenten days

Let me begin today with
a Buddhist and Lenten
thought called
“Double perception”

Take a very good look at this drawing:A frog?

Now turn it around and here is what you see:
There is always another side to a story.

(And this also applies to the “news” that we listen to
or read about even what we share with you monthly…
and certain “news” may not be apt for print…
– but you can always “turn the picture around”
and read between lines…)

This could well be a Lenten message too:
the invitation to respect other people’s opinion
and be able to look at the same “truth”
from different angles;
to be vulnerable to the truth of the other.
Amen.
