There is a huge difference between reacting and responding. A reaction is typically quick, without much thought, tense and aggressive. A response is thought out, calm and non-threatening. A reaction typically provokes more reactions – perpetuating a long line of hatefulness with nothing accomplished.
My goal is to be a responder not a reacter.
Our heroes are called first responders not first reactors. When you call 911 you don’t want them to join you in your fear and hysteria but respond with solutions, support, calmness, and thoughtfulness.
In Him,
Joyful
