Kindness
Does anyone think of
kindness anymore? When was the last time you encountered a truly
kind person? When was the last time that you slowed down enough to
be truly kind to whoever was in your personal space - even if they
instill in you impatience or other energies that you do not want to
embody?
Over the past year, I had the gift of encountering
two people who were so very kind that it struck me at the core that
I needed to step it up a little in that direction - or maybe a lot
in that direction!
It felt so good to be in the presence of
a kind person. It warmed all parts of me. What a gift being kindness
is to all in our world.
What happened to kindness? Why is it
no longer in vogue or valued? And why does it still hold an awesome
response vibrationally when we receive or give kindness?
Among the foundational religions of the world, kindness is a virtue.
I thought the virtues were faith, hope and charity - how did
kindness slip in the back door?
In both the old and new
testament, kindness to another is considered more important than
honoring God with ceremony, ritual, or prayers. This is so huge, as
it is totally missing from our social life today. We need to put it
back in!
Wouldn't it be transformational if each of us was
kind to every person we encountered? If everyone operated from a
place of kindness, there would be no wars, there would be no
violence, there would be no jealousy, and there would be no
manipulation or control.
Remember my experience of feeling
warm when in the presence of kind person? Well one of the synonyms
of kindness is warmth and warm-heartedness! Kindness comes from
warmth and spreads warmth to others.
For each of us, inner
reflection related to our kindness to others is important. Ask
yourself, “How can I incorporate the energy of kindness in my life?”
Start small and then expand outward. The gift in doing this, is that
kindness will soon be a part of you. It will happen effortlessly -
as it should.
So take a deep breath in, exhale, and
then say the following to yourself:
I am kind
I am concerned, I care, and I am interested I am warmhearted and
I exude warmth I love being kind I have lots of time to be
kind Being kind makes me feel great I love reinstalling
kindness into our planet - person by person, encounter by encounter
I am kind
