Tis the holiday season. Lets remember to be kind to one another. Although we should always be doing this, it should definitely be done during the holiday season. We need to remember people are more stressed during this season. A kind word to someone might booster their day. Make them smile, hold the door open, give them a good morning. It doesn't matter how you make their day, just do it. I think as a group of people we have lost the act of kindness. Sometimes that smile, the holding the door open, giving them a good morning, could turn the day around for them. There is a quote that goes like this."Sometimes it takes one act of kindness and caring to change a persons life" Imagine what could do for someone by just saying that one powerful word "HI". Think about it.
My challenge to everyone, including myself is do an act of kindness everyday. You might even feel better and happier by doing. What a shock that would be. That we would also benefit from it.
Make this holiday season about paying it forward. Buy that person behind you in the drive thru there dinner. Offer to help someone you see is struggling. Just that little bit will help the world be a better place. Help the season be about giving and not receiving. Teach your kids what the true meaning of Christmas is. In case we have all forgotten what the true meaning of Christmas is, it is
"to give up one's very self — to think only of others — how to bring the greatest happiness to others — that is the true meaning of Christmas.”
Happy Holidays to everyone.
