Sometimes I wonder why is it so hard for people to speak kindly of one another. It seems that so many of us are so quick to find fault in others that we forget the significance and the power of praising and uplifting each other. We'd rather gossip about strangers before complimenting them. We always want the "bad news" first, as if it will be easier to forget.
Consider this: How often do we say "I love you" each day, to someone other than our family? How many people do we love and care for like family, even though they are not blood? How often do we love those without regard to whether they love us back? How often do we have a positive thought about someone before we think of a negative one?....Compassion: something everyone wants, but struggles to offer.
Maybe if we expressed our positive feelings a little more, and gave each other credit when it's due, we could all trust each other more. If we really spoke from the heart, without fear, maybe we'd all soften up a bit. Maybe that would open our eyes.
We were created in love, and designed to love...so loving each other shouldn't really be such a difficult thing to do, right?...
