The last weekend had been one that was filled with excitement, much thought and reflection. It's hard being a leader, a servant leader. It's even harder being a friend. A friend that constantly cares, who is constantly there to lend the ear, the shoulder to lean on. It is even harder when you know that it is in our calling to create an environment that is loving and warm just like a big family.

Mistakes are constantly being made as we try to make things for the better. Even between the people that you would expect to be very close have our friction and well, sometimes even being distant from each other. Inevitably, there are also times when we cannot share things with one another because we do not feel that bond or we are simply not comfortable sharing. Yet, these are the times that we hurt the people around us the most because we seem like we are leaving them out of the loop.

I am guilty of that too. It's hard to tell everyone everything. There are times where I just feel like bottling everything up and not share for the fact that I don't want people to feel less important because I don't tell them what is happening at this point in time. To those whom I have hurt with my actions, I sincerely apologize and seek for your forgiveness.

Let us try to be mindful of the people around us and how the feel. Let us break all barriers and share our feelings with each other that are close to our hearts openly. Ultimately, we should learn not to judge for we are answerable to God and not man.
