What
is kindness?
Kindness
in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates
profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love. Lao
Tzu
I
was recently having a conversation with a friend when the subject
turned to kindness. I asked him what the difference was between LOVE
and KINDNESS. “Love is present in all of us, whether we choose to
open our hearts or not. Kindness is love expressed”. Jim Reyes,
creator of Waves Of Kindness. http://wavesofkindness.org
I
would agree. We all are born with a heart and a chakra energy center
for that love to come in and go out. It is up to us to allow that
energy to flow freely. Sometimes we have an early life experience we
do not understand and that heart chakra gets stuck or closed up and
the energy cannot flow freely. Our spirit wants to express the love
yet sometimes our minds are in control and we do not share our love,
and we are not kind. Love expressed, aka kindness, is what we need to
give ourselves first. It is after that we can share our love with
others and be kind. When we are kind we are raising our own
vibration. It is then when we are in a position to attract much
greater good into our lives. This makes me think of the old adage,
“when we give, we receive”. Anonymous
I
am grateful when I witness the kindness from others to those they do
not know. When we are kind without any thought of what we get back,
we are truly generous.
To
be kind to ourselves, and to others, feels good. When we feel good,
we can experience joy. Joy comes from
Old
French
joie,
based on Latin
gaudium,
from gaudere
‘rejoice.’
Let
us rejoice daily and renew our spirit. Be kind.
I
am kind.
I
am.
Love,
Light, & Kindness!
