Kindness Dwelling, Rising

“At some point in life the world’s beauty becomes enough. You don’t need to photograph, paint, or even remember it. It is enough.”― Toni Morrison

“There is a kindness that dwells deep down in things; it presides everywhere, often in the places we least expect. The world can be harsh and negative, but if we remain generous and patient, kindness inevitably reveals itself. Something deep in the human soul seems to depend on the presence of kindness; something instinctive in us expects it, and once we sense it we are able to trust and open ourselves.” – John O’Donohue, Benedictus

Oneself
One to other
Other to many
Self to neighborhood to world
Daily work of hope, resolve, consistency, steadfastness, principles, joy, kindness
Love overcomes fear, anger, othering, selfishness, lies, gaslighting, division
Love overcomes
The “thing” I can do, especially when it’s hard, not my first response
Walk in love

“Love is the only sane and satisfactory answer to the problem of human existence.”― Erich Fromm
