I like this. I have truly learned to focus on what is present as opposed to what is absent or missing. The only time I need contemplation, is when I must consider whether the appreciation I have for someone’s qualities or being, overrides the unacceptability of the severity of their less finer qualities. If unacceptable behavior is paramount and persistent, I must set boundaries and/or remove myself. However, it is highly possible to maintain appreciation for their finer qualities, even then. This is a state birthed from self-love. How I appreciate myself is exactly the level at which I am able to appreciate others
