I Resolve To™ . . . Be Conscious Of My Words, Actions & Deeds Today! - Day 178
One kind word. One smile. One thoughtful deed. One small action that helps someone. One gesture that brightens a person's day. It doesn't take much to 'do good' - to be nice to others. The little things in life count as much - and sometimes more - than the big things. Don't worry about changing the world overnight, or dramatically altering your lifestyle and habits. When you do one small thing over and over,
day after day, it really adds up over time. Today, 'think one' . . . be kind 'once' and see where it leads.
It's Thursday - Tip-Day for PreMeditated Acts of Kindness. My 2008 resolution is to 'Show Gratitude' for my blessings by 'Giving Back'. The point behind PreMeditated Acts Of Kindess is to give more conscious thought to my actions, the way that I treat others - and the way that I treat 'myself'. In 2008 I am urging folks to join me and do the same - to work at being kind because it's the right thing to do, without worrying about receiving anything in return, be it kind gesture or word, though my experience is that kindness shown is usually returned in kind.
To get you in the 'kindnes groove' I offer these warm words of inspiration from Wisdom Quotes:
"The little unremembered acts of kindness and love are the best parts of a person's life." William Wordsworth
"Kindness is more important than wisdom, and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom." Theodore Rubin
"One isn't necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can't be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest." Maya Angelou
