Choose Kindness....

Can we talk? I mean really talk, not just about surface stuff that really has no meaning, but about the important things that have the potential to change life's.......

Why is it that so many people walk through life "thinking" choosing kindness as a lifestyle doesn't pertain to me, I am very kind to others! But, truth be told, they are not. You know the people I mean, the ones that if you manage to "fit" into their little box of whats acceptable to them, THEN they will treat you with kindness.

So often, it feels, that people forget that we are each on our own personal journey through life. It seems these "chosen" ones believe that if you aren't following their particular path and believing with all your heart what they are choosing to believe (and while they're at it, trying to force you to believe), you are somehow flawed, broken or even downright evil. They make it clear to you that way you are living your life and how you are choosing to walk your path will most certainly destine you to spending your eternity in hell. 

These are the same people that say they base how they treat others on love......hmmmmm.....Seriously? 

I guess I can't understand why we can't all just get along. Why do I have to believe the way you do in order to earn your kindness? Why do I need to dress like you or worship like you? 

I don't know why God has given me a different message than he has give you. But I do know the difference between me and them is that I don't question God's reasons. I can easily accept that we all have different paths to walk, different truths to believe, different lessons to learn. God's plan for my life will always be different from His plan for yours. 

Kindness should never be based on religious or political belief's, kindness should never be based on the color of your skin, the language you speak or social standing. Kindness should never be based on how one chooses to worship. We should all strive to spread kindness regardless of these things. 

Kindness should be a lifestyle.....choose to make it yours today!
