The Black Sheep

The black sheep is not defined only by being different than the rest, it is the one that requires a lot of work. This person can be rebellious, or of a type not identified with the other persons of the family, of work or of school.

Practically all the family knows a member as the black sheep, even the most structured in which all apparently is going well. But who agrees that even in a home well structured, where everyone treats each other well, with stability and values, does not need something?

Therefore, The problem is not always this individual. Generally, it is someone with strong sensitivity that feels that he is not doing well or that the group or environment is lacking.

The person that shows him/herself different, can be one more feeling and therefore is suffering from the absence of something not apparent to others and manifests this, not through an exact answer, directly on target, but wanting to be known through protest.

Only when we look with love, without condemnation, without the label and we can read this person and see what is lacking. It is with spending days  in loving and not labeling, we begin to bring this estranged sheep closer to our heart and thus also correct or supply what is lacking for all around us.

Praise God if you live with such a person. In him/her may be the answer to a question that has not yet been asked or realized.

God Bless You!
