“When we feel love and kindness towards others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it also helps us to develop inner happiness and peace,” ~Dalai Lama.
The Dalai Lama talks about how being kind can lead to our own peace and happiness. Kindness matters and our local businesses and non-profits were on board too with their own campaigns to spread the word. This move to the Heartland has been such a wonderful experience for me and my entire family. Grateful for my personal and professional rewards as I reflect on my moving anniversary. Not just in the Heartland but everywhere kindness is all around us. Maybe just being ready to look for it wherever we are is the key? Look for the kindness heartbeat where you are. What do you notice? How does it make you feel? How can we promote acts of kindness?
Poet, Mary Oliver, posed a question, “Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" Let’s plan to cultivate kindness every day and everywhere. If you happen to see me driving by, wave! Please just assume that I’m driving slow (not to irritate you) because I’m checking on my animals or the corn. I’ll wave back thrilled to see you while enjoying this amazing ride. #makekindnessloud
