In the middle of our community’s neatly manicured lawns
sits one house with thigh-high grass. People driving by must wonder, “When are
they going to mow?” Walking past the house is out of the question because who
knows what kind of wildlife might attack. There’s always one lawn in a
neighborhood that turns heads.
Overgrown lawns are like people, the outside suggests whether
something significant is happening on the inside. If you see acquaintances
acting a bit unusual, dig a little deeper. Watch how a neighborly visit might have
prevented this situation:
Unfortunately, we either under or overreact to
curious behaviors. In this case, a well-intentioned favor morphed into a police
matter, which shows how easily our internal state bubbles up to the surface and spills
into the public arena. What incredible experience has caused you to behave
in a surprising way?
