Grace is loving those who don’t deserve to be loved. It’s giving an undeserved gift.
Grace in women gains the affections sooner, and secures them longer, than any thing else. It is an outward and visible sign of an inward harmony of soul.
Quotation from William Hazlitt
Grace is available for each of us every day- our spiritual daily bread- but we’ve got to remember to ask for it with a grateful heart and not worry about whether there will be enough for tomorrow.
Quotation from Sarah Ban Breathnach
This is comic #700. I am grateful for every comment, every kind word, given over the last 2 1/2 years. Thank you so much for overlooking my faults and petty mistakes. I am blessed because of you.
In my opinion these faults and petty mistakes are only felt by yourself, not by your audience who are only grateful to be subscribed to your comics for free. I for myself spend much time and effort in caring for help-needing family members. For a long time I saw this as a burden, an obligation. Until I heard somebody who said something about burdens imposed on you, that become lighter and lighter until they aren’t there anymore. Now I realize that calling something a burden makes its weight heavier, and helping in a relaxed and dedicated way takes the burden away.
I see parallel between “grace” and “care” this way. When I read about grace, I had to think of my picture which I hereby dedicate to you as a thankyou for your pictures and your personal advices.:

I think one can possess grace despite a soul in turmoil – harder to do, but still…

Thank you to you too. Love your posts!
agree with Sue !
I can admit that I lack grace. Often. It’s one of my many shortcomings. But I can appreciate it in others. With that, congratulations on 700 posts. That is a lot of musings for Sera, indeed. Be well.
We become aware of our state of grace when looking back and seeing anew what we could not see or understand before, Congratulations on your continued graceful posts
