“There is one word that is particularly vital to understanding people who are in some way different; one word that allows for the hospitality toward strangers to be real and authentic; one word for the work of being an ally to come alive. The word is imagination. Imagination is the critical piece of recognizing and honoring differences. There is no way to fully understand another person’s experiences…but there is hope through imagination. Imagination builds a bridge between what I know of my experiences and what you share with me of yours.” -Douglas Taylor
