Watch what you step on

I had tenants before I took over my condo, a couple with their 2 kids. I went over while they were still living there and b/c I had my shoes on and didn’t want to dirty the tiles but also didn’t want to take off my shoes, I skipped unto a rug that was conveniently placed, I figured for the kids to play on, or whatever. Oh the horror! The man gently asked me if I could get off their prayer rug. LOL! I felt such shame for having offended them but at the same time I was dying to run out and laugh! I had no idea they were Muslim, I didn’t care. Ya, they had Arabic names but they could be Christians too and the latter offend me more b/c I’ve had more contact with them and I was raised to be a Christian.
Anyways, nothing to debate here, just thought I’d share.
