Kindness Counts

Be kind. Each drop of kindness is a spark of light we contribute to humanity. It ripples ever outward, with healing grace. Kindness is a simple, small act of love. It shows we care about the world around us. It gets us out of “me”, into “what can I do for others?”

It does not have to be costly in terms of time or money. It can be as simple as a smile, a compliment, a few random words of encouragement. But it likely means more to the receiver than we might imagine. In a nutshell, it shows them that there are still people “out there” who care.

Kindness + caring = a happier world. “Service to self “and “service to others” seem to be increasingly divergent paths in the world right now. Which path will we each follow? Perhaps a healthy balance between the two is in order…

So, don’t forget to be kind to yourself too.

Yes You Can

So many people believe they have no power as an individual to change the world, but yes we do. It is simply the thought that we have no power that disempowers us, nothing else. (And the matrix of society intentionally feeds us the idea that we don’t, consequently when we accept it, we don’t.)

When we each embrace our own inner power to create the world WE want, we will be come the collective that does.

Stone’s Throw Away

One might imagine I wrote this poem about a personal relationship, but no, I wrote it for humanity. And I guess “relationship” applies anyway, because aren’t we all having a relationship with each other?

It’s time to stop throwing stones of hatred, and remember the underlying love that binds us together. Or, how are we ever going to overcome the problems in the world?

Stone’s Throw Away is an excerpt from Humanity’s Lament: Poetry for Our Times
