Just Be Kind...

It seems that everywhere we turn these days we're hearing vitriol, anger, and hate. Yet, we are human beings sharing a common life on planet earth. We have, every single one of us, been made in the image of God. In other words, we are divine beings housed in an outer physical body. It's extremely sad when our focus is on anger rather than sharing that common humanity -- that common divinity.

A priest friend of mine, The Rev. John Harmon, changed my life forever when he said "kindness is holiness." It's so easy to think of holiness as something beyond us, or as some degree of moral perfection which only a very few can attain. But, if holiness can be as simple as kindness then we can all be holy.

Another teacher for me yesterday was my waiter at a restaurant in the Las Vegas airport. I made a mini-vid of what he said here: https://www.facebook.com/renee.miller.718/videos/10212702007521673/

With all that we are experiencing these days from news broadcasts to Washington, from our communities to our own lives, I just wonder what might happen if some of us just chose to be kind - today - and then, maybe again tomorrow and the day after. If you think we'd feel better and bring a little more peace into the world,  type "Just be kind" in the comment section below!

    Life is rich with texture and beauty. Even the parts that seem unwanted hold within them seeds of grace.

    In this blog, you will find all sorts of snippets and vignettes about life - sometimes whimsical, or poetic, or reflective, or my own experiments with life. Perhaps, you will find yourself somewhere in my random musings. 

    I will write as if I were writing in my personal journal.  Where things touch your soul or might be helpful to someone you know, please share this blog with them.
