access amazing anyone appreciate enter life privilege truly understand understanding
I don't think we ever can understand anyone else's life completely, period. But a willingness to truly enter into the possibility of understanding it is amazing in itself. And I got a window, just a peek, into a world that I never had access to, and it was a privilege and it was life-changing, and I just appreciate that.

By putting on another's skin, I have a sense of what it's like to be black.
empathy imagine inside pause prayer skin takes wait
My prayer is that each of us look inside our own hearts. It takes a willingness to pause before we make an assumption. I think all this erupts because we don't wait -- we react. And the willingness to have empathy and just imagine what it would be like to be in someone else's skin -- that's my prayer.
