Insight on Today's Quote

It will not always feel warm, fair, encouraging. There will be times when people feel far away and things feel heavy. We don’t have to accept the coldness around us, we can be warmth ourselves.

A nice word, a thoughtful message, a patient answer, an act of generosity, however tiny, can affect the atmosphere surrounding a person. We can’t fix everything, but we can pick what we put in. Sometimes the “fire” we make is simply compassion provided at the proper moment.

Step Up To The Challenge

Do one intentional act of kindness without expecting anything in return. Encourage someone, help with a small task, send a thoughtful message, or simply give your full attention to a person who needs it.
