Sometimes it’s easy to confuse things for other things. This has happened to me a lot these past two years.
For example, I’ve confused:
Saying hi to my neighbor with Loving my neighbor
Frugality with Simplicity
Thriftiness with Ethicality
Necessity with Caring for the earth
Talking about doing justice with Doing justice
Sharing a house with Sharing life
Lending someone my power with Empowerment
Making a meal with Hospitality
Cleaning the floor with Loving my husband
Talking about intentional community with Nurturing deep and invested relationships
Not hitting people with Non-violence
Frustration with Anger
Thinking about the things I’m praying for with Praying
Curbing my desires and wants with Being content with what I have
Buying less expensive stuff with Buying less stuff
Relying on public transportation with Slowing down
Eating more vegetables with Creating a healthier relationship to food
Working a 30 hour week with Creating healthy work/life balances
Liking a status with Connecting with a friend
Sharing a post with Transforming my mind
Quoting statistics with Knowing what I’m talking about
Pulling the middle finger with Not putting too much weight in people’s opinions of me
Saying its okay with Forgiving
Pulling the sheets straight with Making the bed
