Good morning, and happy Monday! Kindness has become severely underrated these days. Too many people are so quick to judge or to be nasty to someone that it can sometimes feel as though kindness and understanding have become almost nonexistent in our current culture.
How have you been kind lately?
I’m currently being kinder to myself in regard to how I spend my time and how I treat my time when writing. I’ve eased up my workload a bit by going back to the basics of these Morning Motivationals, and I’m currently turning my attention to focusing on more and more exciting things for this blog and for my Etsy shop!
Has there been a time where you know you could have been nicer, but you weren’t?
For sure. I think we’ve all been there. I beat myself up over it when it’s all said and done, even though I know I can’t go back and change what I said or did. I know I have the capacity to apologize and ask for forgiveness from the person that I wronged. I also need to learn to not be so judgmental, but I think we all need to learn to be more understanding and compassionate.
What is one thing that you wish people would do more of in regard to being kind?
Smile and nod. I’m serious! The number of people that I smile at while passing by, and they seem genuinely shocked that I even acknowledged them, is astounding to me! I think it goes to show that we all need to be a little more considerate of others and of how we carry ourselves when we’re out and about. It costs nothing to smile at a stranger, but it could mean everything to them.
I hope to hear y’all’s answers in the comments below!
I love you all so much! Stay safe and stay positive! 💖
