MEMORIAL DAY TWOFER - OLD + NEW!


---A THREE Minute video I made a few years ago. It's called, 'Choose To Be Happy!' It's talks about life being a series of choices. As usual, there is a message, but the production is lacking.

A KIND WORLD

A KIND WORLD


 
CLICK PICTUREs

---If anyone wants a kinder world in any respects it is up to us all to be kinder. Kindness begets kindness. It works the same way that ALL else does. The Golden Rule, if followed,  guarantees it. If everyone is treated fairly, there is a good chance that he/she, in turn, will treat others fairly.

---The biggest mistake in this seems to be that we wait for the other to start the ball rolling. We seem to justify that behavior of waiting by calling it righteous indignation and play by the rules of an eye for an eye. As Gandhi tells us that through that behavior it will result in blindness for the whole world.



---Gandhi also told us that we should be the change that we wish to see in the world. Being KIND fills the bill. The Dalai Lama has told us that NOW is always the right time to be kind. It is difficult to go wrong with KINDNESS.



---Just be kind. Don’t wait for someone else to start it up. Bite-the-bullet, so to speak. Results will come back to you. Kindness is the cure-all that many seek. People usually AREN’T kind if they’ve received many bumps + bruises along the way. Many have been worn down. A good experiment to try is: exchange being kind each time you feel like being negative for one week. You’ll see immediate changes. If you stay true to this, the only negativity you experience will be from the residue that YOU had set in motion when you were negative. Eventually, ‘A KIND WORLD’ will come into focus. Be Well.
