Day 23.

“The true measure of an individual is how he treats a person who can do him absolutely no good.”


Honestly...how amazing does it feel to do something for someone out of the kindness of your heart and know that you want and will get nothing in return.  It feels amazing for me...and satisfying.   I love helping others whether it's someone whose car broke down or giving an extra few cents to the lady ahead of me riffling through her purse to find 3 cents because she doesn't want to break her 20.00.  Either way I'm left with a humble feeling...like I have restored someones believe in humanity again.


But I also want to leave you with another thought....


What satisfaction does it give you when you do something to someone to purposely make them feel inadequate, like making fun of someones misfortune, or by taking something from them you don't even care for only to let them go without...like the last piece of chocolate cake...you didn't want it...you just didn't want someone else you were angry with to have it....
How long does that satisfaction last? Or does it?  Life isn't about taking...it's about giving...depriving others of something you could do to make their life better at no risk to you is not gratitude and if it is...trust me....it's short lived...


Do something amazing today for a perfect stranger...see how good it feels and I'm sure they will pay it forward and do something kind for someone else...give to those you have been taking from....out of spite, jealousy or hurtful grudging...it's not worth your soul...


Peace, Love, Luck & Laughter....xo
