"The little things? The little moments? They aren't little! " ` Jon Kabat-Zinn
There is such value and importance in what seems like the tiniest of things. For a second think of how great it feels when a stranger holds the door open for us, offers a random compliment, allows us to go ahead of them in the check out line, co workers greeting us with a smile, or finding a note of encouragement from a loved one. It all feels good!!
Each take only a moment...but they are conscious choices that tells others we care, that we believe in kindness....and that we are living outwardly and are aware that everyone is going through "something" and can use a bright spot in their day. They are not alone on their journey! It is this "pay it forward" energy that builds momentum.
It is my belief that we have a responsibility to others to be kind and empathetic. It is a choice I make daily. Responsibility then transitions into desire and before you know it, lives are being touched with both kindness and tenderness.
Together we can spread so much kindness!!!
This is a cycle of Life that I believe in. This is.....my choice!
POST DISCLOSURE: I originally posted this entry a couple of years ago. It is a message that still feels powerful in my Life. Things are busy right now...in a fun way (I'll share with you soon) but I was feeling neglectful having not posted in a bit. As always Dear Readers...Thanks for coming back for more.
Peace~
