Today let’s take some time to think about how we open our hearts with this profound and inspiring song from Noel Paul and Betty Stookey. The message of being open to learning is in being open to liking ourselves and others. Also, taking the time to appreciate those very different from us is the perfect way to approach the world. By creating a rainbow, we are able to talk about how each color brings its own radiance but together makes something breathtaking.

Directions
