Is it offering someone you could not disagree with more, some bread if they need it?

Is it forgiveness in an impossible, Historic situation?

Is it that one moment when someone holds the door for you, or they thank you for holding the door for them.

What do you LIKE? What is absolutely "graceful in your world?

We were at a wdding. My cousins son was marrying the love of his life.
The mother of the bride had had long standing and very public drama with my sister.
During the reception. And wothout making a scene she approached my sister to make peace. It took a lot of courage for her to admit to her part in causing the drama. She apologized and asked my sister if for the sake of our families can they let bygones be bygones.
I was glad they made prace as she passed away srveral months later.

"That" is gorgeous!!! ..and took courage! !!!

Maybe it depends on what one defines as grace

That is a good ?... and of course ever one is different ...
I believe is always about someone... they have a graceful walk ... they are very polite ... I think of ballerinas... when I think of grace... something they have to have to be one ... someones temperament... the way they carry them selves ... holding the door and saying thanks could be a form of grace ... but that goes under polite ... someone that can keep it together in a time that needs to calm a stressful situation ... is it forgiveness ... ? I don't think that is grace ... maybe a blessing of some sort ...

I have seen people who lay dying, with grace
because instead of taking by spreading the
grief, they give by trying to comfort those
left behind.

Amazing grace.

Grace could be many different things at many different times. It can mean showing kindness, when none is expected or required.

Not particularly relevant to modern culture.


Not really. That's "charity."


No.
That's "forgiveness."


No. That's a social contract, reciprocity.


Turtles?


Certain women. Although, not really "absolutely."

I love turtles. MUCH Grace!

One of my sisters middle name is Grace.

Grace of the kind you refer to, is all too rare in the world.

I connect it partially myself, to the person having a strong sense of personal honor, and conducting themselves according to those high standards, regardless of personal advantage. I find it also, in the quiet circumstances, where someone does "good works" QUIETLY, without even allowing others to know that they do.

I don't think it qualifies as "grace," to perform 'good deeds' only to garner praise.

"Grace" someone overlooking a misdeed is providing grace. Someone not receiving a punishment for a wrong doing is receiving grace.
In a spiritual sense God provides us grace, mercy and forgiveness which are all different attributes of a Loving God.

I absolutely agree and what a fantastic definition!!!

Not to be flippant about "that" but I was reminded, "Tis an honorable and graceful person who steps out of the shower to pee in the toilet, when there is no one around to notice."

When I was 6 months old, one day I was getting my feed on.
This other kid was wailing away like a little baby.
So I told him he could have my place.
I crawled over to the cat's litter box, and munched on
a tootsie roll.
Much better than turtles.

But this was back in the days,
When grace was relevant.

Then, I pooped in the litter box.
*Reciprocity*

Grace for me:
Children and their innocence.
Simplicity
Kindness I often times receive from strangers.
Family and friends.
Giving thanks and praise God for what I have. And Im Happy that way.

Grace is the ability to maintain a cool and level head while the world (figuratively, meteorically or literally) is falling apart all around them as they calmly and steadily move toward the goal that has been set. This may also appear to others as a type of whimsical and almost per-choreographed dance with chaos where in the dancer moves through the scene apparently unscathed making it look effortless.

I have fallen from grace and found great wisdom as what passes for much knowledge ( like someone in the sky looking over us) insightful and providing greater clarity amidst a sea of dogmatic assertions without any way to confirm or not...

Well.. right now Grace for me means holding out the Olive Branch.. to someone so you can get some closure... the grace comes from the other person accepting the offer..

isn't it the nick name of someone here?
