"If someone is too tired to
give you a smile, leave one of your own, because no one needs a smile
as much as those who have none to give."
Good
morning!
The
past few days we have been focusing a bit on how our thinking and
choices effect our days. But what happens when we run into someone else
who is unpleasant or rude or impatient? How do we cope with that? The
cliché "kill them with kindness" exists for a reason. When we are kind
to each other, we don't literally kill each other--but we kill that
seed of anger or distrust or unhappiness that caused someone to act out
negatively in the first place. We are all conditioned by what we know.
The more kindness and happiness we experience, the kinder and happier
we become.
Think about it this way: Each time you meet someone who is grumpy,
tired or sad - you have the option of leaving a seed of happiness or a
seed of indifference or negativity. Whatever seed you leave will be
part of this person's conditioning for all of time (even if it is
someone you have only met for a nano-second). What is best for that
person? What is best for you? Amazingly the answer is the same--leaving
a seed of hope, or happiness, or a smile (as in today's quote) is the
best for all. It reminds us of how what is all around us -- won't last
forever. Yet, in the same breath, it reminds us to dance and smile and
celebrate.
Your turn: Try to sew 10 seeds of
kindness today or share 10 smiles.
Your affirmation: I
radiate happiness and kindness to all those I come into contact with.
