How many of us at some point in our lives really believed we were open minded, accepting, non judgmental....
I remember early on in my life when I would see someone doing something I believed to be "wrong", I would think "well at least I HAVE NEVER done that"... Interesting that mindset. I was very proud that "I had NEVER".
I am going to be honest here (because we can be honest here), I think I needed a lesson in humility because it seems over my lifetime, a lot of that stuff that I said "I had NEVER"...Well, I now have. 
It was an eye opener for me when I realized I was just as guilty of doing the same things I had judged others for. It's not easy to see yourself and acknowledge the fact that you too are in need of Grace.
I try to be more conscious now and not think "I have never." Hopefully I'm more apt to say "I have"... I have learned, and now I humbly Love. Also hopefully I now understand Grace a little better because so much Grace has been given to me.
