Loving Others...

How is it that we know that we are not perfect yet expect perfection with others? I believe in loving others, no matter what type of relationship, unconditionally. I have come to find that not all people feel this way. There are times when I have been told that I am not complete or lovable because of the way I look, act, believe, or simply for having diabetes. While it may be the honest thoughts of others...it cuts so deep. This is something that I cannot even start to comprehend. How is it that we take it upon ourselves to be judge and jury of the "Who is Good Enough" contest in this world? All people ARE equal! No matter the color of the skin, eye or hair color, religion, culture, sexuality, gender, economic status, physical and/or mental limitations. We were ALL created in the image of God! We all are valued and loved just as we are!
