This week, we will be exploring the “Accepted” Dimension of Belonging. Our communities are full of individual people who bring their own unique and vibrant characteristics. These unique qualities are what make the world extraordinary. Unfortunately, not everyone realizes this. Some individuals are ignored, rejected, or mistreated by others because of their differences. By accepting and celebrating one another’s individuality, there will be a greater sense of belonging in the community.
