The world around us is starved for kindness.

Seek out moments, individuals and situations that need your compassion. Give freely, lovingly and without expectation of return and feel the joy you’ve just injected into a wounded world. You cannot give compassion without also receiving it yourself.

You may feel exhausted by life, your own pain bubbling just beneath the surface. Give compassion anyway. Feel the joy that radiates from sharing a part of yourself without hesitation. Feel your own worries subside, even if it’s just for a moment.
