Kindness

Kindness goes a long way and many times we just need to put ourselves in others shoes and remember feelings. In this life we don't know what the next person has going on in their life, what they're battling, what demons they're trying to get rid, past hurts, and darkness in some areas of life... That's where kindness comes in- encouraging, understanding, empathy, speaking in LOVE. I can practice in the kindness category and I appreciate those who have demonstrated it throughout my life.

A Minute

It only takes a minute believe it or not...
How are you doing today?
How is life going?
How are the kids?
How's your spouse?
Is there anything I can pray for you about? (this one I fail 9.5 out of 10 to ask)
How is your family?

That didn't even take a minute to type, but ask one of these questions and you may be surprised how many people will open and be more receptive to share life... See I already know how I'm doing, but it's not about me all the time; so next time we talk or cross paths please expect one of the questions above from me.
