GOD'S JAW DROP



You have probably given another person a look of awe at least once in your lifetime. Suddenly, you were hit with the realization that this person was more than you imagined. There was a depth, a pain, an intellect, a story that came out of left field and hung your jaw open like a broken door hinge.
Remember that?
            ***
Remember that!

And hold on to it, because every person on Earth has, at least, that grain of awe. 

Everyone you meet is a mixture of good and evil, interesting and boring, depth and shallowness. Everyone has their own humanity, their own jaw dropping element, their own beauty. They all have something to share with you, something to teach you, something to learn from you.

We are art and the Creator finds in each of us, a reason to rejoice, a reason to love, a jaw drop, and if we drop God's jaw, we certainly should drop each other's.

Dig for that grain of awe. Find that humanity. Teach and learn. Rejoice and love.

And then close your mouth; you look ridiculous.
