- W3105527963 abstract "“What a nasty thing to say!” But was it? “Her tantrums are so immature!” But are they? “He is just lazy and doesn’t care.” But is he? A momentary pause between our observation and our conclusion about someone can make a world of difference. That moment of grace, in some ways, bestows a peace offering on someone who may or may not deserve it. It offers vitality and goodwill to the encounter. During that momentary internal pause, we have the opportunity to broaden our interpretation, to look beyond our immediate response, to offer the benefit of the doubt. The “nasty thing to say” may be a misunderstood remark. Those “immature tantrums” may be the result of severe emotional pain. That “laziness” may be depression or disillusionment. Few of us would argue with someone giving us the benefit of the doubt. Most often we would welcome that generosity. Yet how do we offer a moment of grace without being gullible? When our intent is to suspend judgment momentarily, we are neither believing nor disbelieving. We simply postpone our conclusions about another’s meaning and intention because we do not know the full story, and we know that we don’t know. We are comfortable sitting with our gesture of grace. Even though we may be taking this high road for the other, the benefits of grace ripple to us as well. Silent moments of grace serve both the giver and the receiver. Opportunities for grace are everywhere. A moment of grace is the interval of time we take to reframe somebody’s behavior so that we can react with curiosity, compassion, or openness rather than judgment, annoyance, or defensiveness. Giving someone the benefit of doubt allows us to delay our reaction to the comment or action with the intent of looking beyond our immediate response." @default.
