Mary Magdalene:Good Keyword

 I did the lesson regarding being judgmental and the analogy to Mary Magdalene yesterday morning.  It is a subject I have lived with all my life, dodging the shoulds/should nots my parents laid out for me in regards to religious behaviors and beliefs.  Having put my own design of spiritual search at the forefront, I had rather forgotten the story of Jesus and Mary.  But, just as the student needs a lesson, here comes the coach, delivering the teacher's wisdom right when its needed.  Last night my husband and I attended a birthday party where the family of his friend was in full attendance. As the evening wore on, and mingling brought us to conversation with those we didn't quite know, we met a brother's girlfriend.  She was quite sincere and we felt we had some very unique subjects in common.  When they had left, the hostess came to tell us we should be ware of making friends with this woman, and she was disliked by the "whole family".  Wow.  I never felt so much JUDGMENT in one fell swoop! And it was directed at another, but I felt negativity immediately.  Bummer, as the party had been quite nice.  I was the designated driver, so I had not been drinking, and had my clear mind to observe the feelings and experience the whole stair-step of thought and emotion in response to this.  I was very glad at that moment to have divorced myself from  prejudice long ago.  And thankful that the example of the TOOLS lesson was so fresh in my brain.  I can only hope someday my actions and example will somehow seep over to those I care about, who are involved in this scenario.
