Our prayers are mostly invisible.

There’s something about public recognition that is compelling though. Even if we are not present when recognition happens. Is this a general human condition to appreciate and enjoy recognition?

So when, or if, public recognition happens in a group and we are not present, just knowing that others know makes many of us feel good.

This is why humility is so difficult.

He silently, and continuously prayed (like many of us do) for everyone he came in contact with.

And as he writes this, he wonders if homeless people silently pray for everyone they come in contact with.
