When I think of innocent, I think of gentle and without judgment. When I’m in an innocent mindset, I’m genuinely curious about what is going on. I’m asking questions so that I can have a clear understanding of what someone meant when they said something to me. I’m not taking their words personally and preparing to defend against a perceived attack and then attack back. Instead of piling my assumptions on what was said, I’m letting go of assigning guilt. Instead I can ask them, “What did you mean by that? “, from a place of trusting in a loving connection rather than a fearful one. Here’s to flipping the script and adopting this mindset in each interaction I have today!
