Getting Along

I was at the mall yesterday and I saw something that warmed my heart.  A girl who I believe is Muslim (I don't like to assume anything but she was wearing a hijab) deposited money into the Salvation Army Christmas kettle.  I almost broke down in tears.  It doesn't always take a lot to make me break down in tears but this was so nice.

Interfaith generosity and love and compassion and understanding are such dreams, such ideals, such lovely things for which to hope.  Of course, we could use generosity, love, compassion and understanding among people within faiths too and within all of society.  We need to get along.  I think it's worth a try.
