    Having an open mind to receive new information takes practice! Accepting new people into our lives, can be hard for some. I encourage you to continue opening up your minds to accepting and learning about the new people who enter your life with love and kindness because how they felt when they first met you is hopefully a gift you've given them and I can guarantee they'll never forget how they felt meeting you and they'll most likely forget the words that were used, but those feelings are going to set the tone of the relationship!
