Hope all is well dear readers,
This week has turned out to be very productive, inspirational, and somewhat frustrating. Productiveness has come in the way of a sparkling clean house, full of fresh spring air. Inspiration revealed itself by me looking within myself. And Frustration, well it sort of built itself up from many unpleasing and yes, even sad situations. With that said, I’ve chose not to focus on the latter in a negative way, but instead take it as many lessons learned.
Each day I have made it my goal to try and understand others around me, and not be left in the darkness of ignorance. However, it never fails that I come across many others not willing to do same. And this leaves me feeling both disheartened and and inspired once again. My heart feels sad because I know like many others, what it feels like not to be clearly understood. On the same token my spirit feels inspired to be better and listen. Hopefully I’m not sounding repetitive, but the point I am trying to make is that we as humans need to do more to both understand and inspire one and other.
As I laid back in my chair the other day, enjoying the fresh afternoon breeze, a thought came to mind. I thought of how beautiful life would be, or better yet this country, if we all came together united in the name of kindness. Hence the title “ The United States of Kindness”. We americans pride ourselves on being number one at many things, but how awesome would it be if we were number one in the world for showing kindness toward one and other. How beautiful would it be if we could put our political and religious views aside for one second and engage in a friendly conversation with someone from the opposite side of the room. It would be even more grand if we could all shake hands, and realize that the person standing before us is a human being who deserves to be loved and treated kindly.
Okay, so yes I know I am dreaming. Possibly living in a fairy tale world if judged by others, but my heart is overjoyed at the thought. My inner being won’t give up hope for such a beautiful happy moment, and just the mere thought of my America being a leader in kindness brightens my day.
Well dear readers, I’m done with todays PSA and the soap box is back in the closet. Please continue to keep all of our brothers and sisters around the world in your prayers, and if the moment arises lend a helping hand.
May your day be filled with love and sunshine,
