Kindness is, I believe, at the root of every human being. You take all the stress and nonsense away from someone and what you will find are beautiful, loving and kind people. We learn from a young age that kindness is a good thing and then we seem to be systematically taught to abandon it from therein. We are taught to believe in concepts like competition instead of cooperation. We are taught to value selfishness and aggression instead of community and self care and because of this we deny our true natures. How often have you come across the idea that kindness is somehow weak? How often have you heard kindness and self sacrifice mentioned in the same sentence?
Kindness is an act of spirit and spirit is the most powerful thing ever. EVER! When you root yourself in kindness you shower your life with all the energy of grace and empowerment. Kindness does not mean letting people walk all over you because that isn't kind to the self but doing what you can when you can to help and support those around you feels wonderful. When you first put the energy of kindness at the forefront of your mind and let it wash all over your life you can literally feel it like a wave. It bombards everything and permeates everything which changes everything and brings it to a lighter, higher vibration and feeling place. I constantly ask myself how I can be a better and more loving person and without fail it begins with kindness. When you share, when you love, when you give peace to the world you empower yourself. When you take the time out to consider what would be the most kind and loving thing to do both for yourself and others you are working with your spirit. Do it and I promise you soon you will see a shift in your life and it will be wonderful!
Big Love
