Repentance

 We don’t always have to wait until we do something wrong to repent, or work to right the wrong we did.  Sometimes, we have to face our indifference, our passivity about a situation.  Someone comes into your world looking for help and you ignore them.  Maybe you judge them so that you can justify your ignoring them.  Are you not passive or indifferent to their being in your life at that moment?  You may not do anything wrong, but neither are you doing anything right.  At times, passivity or indifference might be my first go-to response, but I have learned over time and practice, to catch myself and to respond to the other person.  It is a way of being of service to myself.  Selfish me gets something too.
