What Happened To Kindness
While on a bus today, a young man, maybe 19, wanted to get on, but either had no money or his card wasn’t working.
I have a son about his age and I’ve been without cash at times, so I could feel his frustration. So I walked to the front of the bus to pay for him; pay it forward. The driver said we were not travelling together so I couldn’t pay for him.
I thought it was a very strange rule. The young man thanked me for the attempt and got off the bus.
What a bizarre idea that I couldn’t help a young man in a challenging moment. What happened to kindness?!
People With Sparkle
You really notice a difference when someone has that energy, that sparkle. They are great to be around, fun, playful and energetic.
They engage so passionately that it is impossible not to feel great and uplifted.
Get more of these people in your life.
Love More
Everyone benefits.
Appreciate People More
If you fly through life spending more time noticing what’s “wrong”, today is a great day to flip that on its head.
Millions of tiny things have to happen for you to have a day even close to what you hope or expect. Alarm clocks have to be set correctly, no heart attack, stroke or illness with anyone who will transport you, and you must find all the food you need.
Appreciate all the people in the chain that help in some way to make your day as effective, efficient and enjoyable as possible.
Be amazed and be appreciative.
Dream A Little
Write down your greatest desires. Let your mind widen and open up to all possibilities. Focus on these ideas and pursue your top five.
Remain Open
Remain open to new people and experiences. These adventures can lead to wonderful places.
Equally, be mindful that not all new people or experiences are good for you. So be open yet mindful.
This is the delicate balance for an inspiring life.
Forgiving
Forgiving helps you more than the other person. It allows you to let go of pent up frustration, anger, and resentment. These can eat a whole inside of your body or brain and cause ill health or poor mental health.
Let it go. I know it’s hard. It will get easier with practice. Otherwise you’re bound to become more vindictive or malevolent. And nobody wants to see that.
Beware Of Doubt And Fear
These two can destroy your mind and happiness. Collect information and stay positive and optimistic to keep them at bay.
