Human-kind

“A little thought and a little kindness are often worth more than a great deal of money.” – John Rushkin

We are humankind and not humanmean. Being kind is free and good for both the receiver and giver. Kindness stirs a warmth within the depths of your soul and is released to universe. Kindness given without expectations is one of the most unselfish and loving acts that we may do. Imagine a world where we give without expectations and heal the world with love, happiness, and joy.

“Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.” – Princess Diana

Reflection:

• When was the last time you told someone they did a great job?
• Did you ever tell anyone that they made your day?
• When was the last time someone told you that you mattered?
• How often do you tell yourself that you are awesome?
• What stirs up inside of you when you experience random acts of kindness?
• What are some examples of how you show kindness?
